Optimal distance networks of low degree for parallel computers

Time-Optimal Simulations of Networks by Universal Parallel Computers

For technological reasons, in a realistic parallel computer the processors have to communicate via a communication network with bounded degree. Thus the question for a \good" communication network comes up. In this paper we present such a network, a universal parallel computer (UPC) with the following properties: (i) It has optimal time-loss, namely O(log c) for simulating networks of degree c....

Highly Parallel Computers for Artificial Neural Networks

ii I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble, or a prettier shell than ordinary whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. ABSTRACT iii ABSTRACT During a number of years the two fields of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and highly p...

Interconnection Networks for Large - Scale Parallel Computers

A new scalable interconnection topology called the Spanning Multichannel Linked Hypercube (SMLH) is proposed along with an optical implementation methodology that combines both the advantages of free space optics with those of wavelength division multiplexing techniques. The SMLH uses the hypercube topology as a basic building block and connects such building blocks using two-dimensional multic...
