Abstract:

In this work we present an optical network architecture and deflection
(or hot potato) routing algorithms supporting efficient communication
between n processor nodes in a shared memory parallel computer. The
sparse optical torus network consists of an n x n torus, where
processor nodes are situated diagonally, and routing nodes are optical
deflection nodes of two inputs and two outputs. A design of optical
deflection node is presented. Several routing algorithms, based on
the greedy routing algorithm, are developed. By
experiments and partial theoretical analyses these algorithms run
efficiently on sparse optical torus.
