Performance Analysis of Interconnection Network for Multiprocessor Systems

다중프로세서 시스템을 \ulcorner나 상호결합 네트워크의 성능 분석

Advances in VLSI technology have made it possible to have a larger number of processing elements to be included in highly parallel processor system. A system with a large number of processing elements and memory requires a complex data path. Multistage Interconnection networks(MINS) are useful in providing programmable data path between processing elements and memory modules in multiprocessor system. In this thesis, the performance of MINS for the star network has been analyzed and compared with other networks, such as generalized shuffle network, delta network, and referenced crossbar network.
