The hypercube has been widely used as the interconnection network for parallel computers. However, in hypercubes, the number of communication links for each node is a logarithmic function of the total number of nodes. Therefore, the hypercube is not a good candidate for an interconnection network for a very large parallel computer that might contain hundreds of thousands of nodes due to IC tech...

Transparency in control transactions under a secure network architecture is a key topic that must be discussed when aspects related to interconnection between heterogeneous cyber-physical systems (CPSs) arise. The interconnection of these systems can be addressed through an enforcement policy system responsible for managing access control according to the contextual conditions. However, this ar...

The dynamic reconfiguration of the interconnection network is an advanced feature of some multicomputers. It allows to reduce the communication overhead, improving the performance. In a previous paper [6], we presented a reconfiguration algorithm based on a cost function. It reconfigured the network in such a way that the original topology was preserved. However, that algorithm did not take int...

We address the computer communication network design problem of optimal location of switches/ routers as well as interconnection (OLSRI) of the core network. This problem is applicable, for example, in the network topological architecture design arising in ATM PNNI environment or IP/ATM networking environment. While the pure location design problem has received much attention in the literature,...
