A heuristic on the rearrangeability of shuffle-exchange networks
The algorithms which control network routing are specific to the network because the algorithms are designed to take advantage of that network\u27s topology. The goodness of a network includes such criteria as a simple routing algorithm and a simple routing algorithm would increase the use of the shuffle-exchange network
Reduce the Cross Talk in Omega Network by Using Windowing Techniques
When we work on a distributed network with n number of systems attached with m number of resources. In such case there are number of approaches to connect the system and the resources. One of such approach is Multistage networks. Where some middle level interface systems or the switches are attached between the systems and the resources. But such kind of networks having the problem of confliction when more than one transmission is taken place at one time. In such case there is the possibility that any one line can share more than one transmissions. As the conflictions occur there are much chances of data loss over the network. We are providing the solution for the above defined problem in case of Omega Networks. In this paper we proposed solution the system will first detect the confliction using windowing method. Once the confliction detected the next step is to vary the time of transmission between these two transmissions. As the communication is performed at different time lines it will resolve the problem of confliction in omega networks

Indirect interconnection networks for high performance routers/switches
Routers form the backbone of the Internet; their kernel, structure, andconfiguration (scheduler) of the backplane (or switching fabrics) dominate the routers’performance, scalability, reliability and cost. As higher performance is required with therapid development of the network applications, router’s architecture has also evolvedfrom the shared backplane to switched backplane, which mainly uses the indirectinterconnection networks.The indirect interconnection networks include crossbar, MIN (multistageinterconnection networks) and some other irregular topologies. At present, most oftoday’s routers and switches are implemented on single crossbar with symmetric bufferarchitecture. In the first part of this dissertation, we introduce novel asymmetric bufferarchitecture for the crossbar in which a new port and a local shared bus are added. Wethen evaluate its performance and simulate under different bus arbitration and buffermanagement algorithms. Our studies indicate that we can get great improvement for thethroughput and low drop rate. Thus we could save a lot of expensive link bandwidth anddecrease the probability of congestion for the network.Single crossbar complexity increases at O(N2) in terms of crosspoint number,which become unacceptable for scalability as the port number (N) increases. A delta classself-routing MIN with complexity of O(N×log2N) has been widely used in the ATMswitches. But the reduction of crosspoint number results in considerable internal blocking.A number of scalable methods have been proposed to solve this problem. One of themuses more stages with recirculation architecture to reroute the deflected packets, whichgreatly increase the latency. In the second part of this dissertation, we propose aninterleaved multistage switching fabrics architecture and assess its throughput with ananalytical model and simulations. We compare this novel scheme with some previousparallel architectures and show its benefits. From extensive simulations under differenttraffic patterns and fault models, our interleaved architecture achieves better performancethan its counterpart of single panel fabric. Our interleaved scheme achieves speedups(over the single panel fabric) of 3.4 and 2.25 under uniform and hot-spot traffic patterns,respectively at maximum load (p=1). Moreover, the interleaved fabrics show greattolerance against internal hardware failures
Devices and networks for optical switching
This thesis is concerned with some aspects of the application of optics to switching and computing. Two areas are dealt with: the design of switching networks which use optical interconnects, and the development and application of the t-SEED optical logic device. The work on optical interconnects looks at the multistage interconnection network which has been proposed as a hybrid switch using both electronics and optics. It is shown that the architecture can be mapped from one dimensional to two dimensional format, so that the machine makes full use of the space available to the optics. Other mapping rules are described which allow the network to make optimum use of the optical interconnects, and the endpoint is a hybrid optical-electronic machine which should be able to outperform an all-electronic equivalent. The development of the t-SEED optical logic device is described, which is the integration of a phototransistor with a multiple quantum well optical modulator. It is found to be important to have the modulator underneath rather than on top of the transistor to avoid unwanted thyristor action. In order for the transistor to have a high gain the collector must have a low doping level, the exit window in the substrate must be etched all the way to the emitter layer, and the etch must not damage the emitter-base junction. A real optical gain of 1.6 has been obtained, which is higher than has ever been reached before but is not as high as should be possible. Improvements to the device are suggested. A new model of the Fabry-Perot cavity is introduced which helps considerably in the interpretation of experimental measurements made on the quantum well modulators. Also a method of improving the contrast of the multiple quantum well modulator by grading the well widths is proposed which may find application in long wavelength transmission modulators. Some systems which make use of the t-SEED are considered. It is shown that the t-SEED device has the right characteristics for use as a neuron element in the optical implementation of a neural network. A new image processing network for clutter removal in binary images is introduced which uses the t-SEED, and a brief performance analysis suggests that the network may be superior to an all-electronic machine
Study of interconnection networks /
A multi-stage N x N interconnection network is said to be universal if it realizes the set of all permutations on N objects. A new bound on the number of stages required for the universality of shuffle-exchange network as well as the analysis of the combinational power for the block-structured networks are given. Finally, the complexity of the verification of a new sufficient condition for rearrangeability due to Benes B5 is analyzed
Multistage interconnection networks : improved routing algorithms and fault tolerance
Multistage interconnection networks for use by multiprocessor systems are optimal in terms of the number of switching element, but the routing algorithms used to set up these networks are suboptimal in terms of time. The network set-up time and reliability are the major factors to affect the performance of multistage interconnection networks. This work improves routing on Benes and Clos networks as well as the fault tolerant capability. The permutation representation is examined as well as the Clos and Benes networks. A modified edge coloring algorithm is applied to the regular bipartite multigraph which represents a Clos network. The looping and parallel looping algorithms are examined and a modified Tree-Connected Computer is adopted to execute a bidirectional parallel looping algorithm for Benes networks. A new fault tolerant Clos network is presented
