Abstract

A general interconnection network is proposed, taking into account locality of traffic. The network has log2N - log N maximum intercell delay, but when high locality occurs in the communications, the mean intercell delay decreases to O(1). The problem of how to map processors with a known traffic distribution onto the terminals of the network in order to minimize the mean intercell delay is analyzed and formulated as a quadratic assignment problem. The uses of this network as a partitioner, a permuter, a full switch and a generalized connection network is discussed.
