According to the glossary at Backgammon Galore <an EXCELLENT backgammon resource>, here is the definition for Swiss Format:

Swiss Format
A method of pairing players in a tournament. Under the Swiss system, players are not eliminated, no player meets the same opponent twice, and successive rounds match players with scores as similar to each other as possible. See post by Osman Guner.
