Zusammenfassung:This paper presents and analyzes a topological approach to providing multiple data channels using current technologies. The Partitioned Optical Passive Stars (POPS) topology is an all-optical interconnection architecture that uses multiple non-hierarchical couplers. POPS topologies provide powerful configurability for optimization of system complexity, network throughput, power budget, and control overhead. It is shown that high performance and utilization is achieved for random communication patterns. POPS topologies maintain these characteristics even when scaled to large systems.< >
