Abstract:

In this work we present an optical network
architecture and deflection routing algorithms supporting efficient
communication between n processor nodes. The network consists of an
nxn 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. Routing
algorithms are based on greedy principle, and by experiments and
partial theoretical analyses they seem to run efficiently on this
architecture.
