Multidimensional Ring-Delta Network: A High-Performance Fault-Tolerant Switching Networks  

Park, Jae-Hyun (중앙대학교 공과대학 컴퓨터공학부)
Abstract
In this paper, a high-performance fault-tolerant switching network using a deflection self-routing was proposed. From an abstract algebraic analysis of the topological properties of the Delta network, which is a baseline switching network, we derive the Multidimensional Ring-Delta network: a multipath switching network using a deflection self-routing algorithm. All of the links including already existing links of the Delta network are used to provide the alternate paths detouring faulty/congested links. We ran a simulation analysis under the traffic loads having the non-uniform address distributions that are usual in Internet. The throughput of $1024\;{\times}\;1024$ switching network proposed is better than that of the 2D ring-Banyan network by 13.3 %, when the input traffic load is 1.0 and the hot ratio is 0.9. The reliability of $64\;{\times}\;64$ switching network proposed is better than that of the 2D ring-Banyan network by 46.6%.
