Manipulating Multistage Interconnection Networks Using Fundamental Arrangements

Effect of Crosstalk on Permutation in Optical Multistage Interconnection Networks

Optical MINs hold great promise and have advantages over their electronic networks.they also hold their own challenges. More research has been done o n Electronic Multistage Interconnection Networks, (EMINs) but these days optical communication is a good networking choice to meet the increasing demands of high-performance computing communication applications for high bandwidth applications. The...

Using the Multistage Cube Network Topology in Parallel Supercomputers. in Interconnection Networks for Large-scale Parallel Processing

Puzzling Permutations

We show how to describe and analyse multistage interconnection networks in a relational framework. We give simple elegant descriptions of butterfly networks, using only two functions for building networks from smaller networks. By studying the algebra of these functions, we can give a clear account of the properties of networks, without resorting to the standard methods of reasoning in terms of...

Formal Specification of Interconnection Networks

Interconnection networks are an important and well-studied topic in parallel computing and architecture, but a homogeneous and general method for defining and classifying the topologies and behaviors of interconnection networks is lacking. Topologies are usually specified informally by picture or more formally by permutations of wire enumerations. This paper presents an improved method for spec...

MINSimulate – A MULTISTAGE INTERCONNECTION NETWORK SIMULATOR

Multistage interconnection networks are frequently proposed as connections in multiprocessor systems or network switches. In this paper, a new tool for stochastic simulation of such networks is presented. Simple crossbars can be simulated as well as multistage interconnection networks that are arranged in multiple layers.
