چکیده

4*h Abstmet-Two recent topologies-Manhattan Street Network (MSN) and HR4-Net (or 2-D Torus)-proposed for metropolitan areas are primanly mesh connected networks. In this brief contribution, we compare the average distance, the diameter, the terminal reliability, and the cost. Simulation results indicate that they are fairly close in performance, while the MSN is observed to be more cost-effective than the HR4-Net.

On The Optimality of The Manhattan Street Network

The Manhattan Street Network (MSN) is a digraph resulting from labeling the edges of a torus with directions. We study some of the basic properties of the MSN labeling. We prove a lower bound on the stretch of any path due to such a labeling, and that the maximum stretch of the MSN meets this bound. We also prove that the diameter of the MSN is not optimal as there exists another labeling of th...

Comparing Four Classes of Torus

The relative communication performance of low-versus high-dimensional torus networks (k-ary n-cubes) has been extensively studied under various assumptions about communication patterns and technological constraints. In this paper, we extend the comparison to torus networks with incomplete, but regular, connectivities. Taking an nD torus as the basis, we show that a simple pruning scheme can be ...

On Torus Topologies with Random Extra Links

In this paper we study networks based on torus topologies enhanced with additional, arbitrary assigned links. We develop a method for analyzing the expected number of hops which can be applied to any torus topol-ogy with randomly assigned extra links when the simplest greedy routing is used. Using this method, we study the following topologies with extra links: one-dimensional unidirectional an...

Optimal Broadcasting in 2-Dimensional Manhattan Street Networks

ABSTRACT Broadcasting is the process of disseminating a message from a node of a communication network to all other nodes as quickly as possible. In this paper we consider Manhattan Street Networks (MSNs) which are mesh-structured, toroidal, directed, regular networks such that locally they resemble the geographical topology of the avenues and streets of Manhattan. Previous work on these networ...
