The Performance of Multicomputer Interconnection Networks

The Performance of Multicomputer Interconnection Networks

The interdependency of nodes and multicomputer interconnection networks is examined using simple calculations based on the asymptotic properties of queueing networks. Methods are described for choosing interconnection networks that fit individual classes of applications. It is also shown how analyti...

Zusammenfassung:The interdependency of nodes and multicomputer interconnection networks is examined using simple calculations based on the asymptotic properties of queueing networks. Methods are described for choosing interconnection networks that fit individual classes of applications. It is also shown how analytic models can be extended to benchmark existing interconnection networks.
