摘要
En 中文
We consider the use of multiple-bus networks (MBNs) in a synchronous parallel processing environment. We propose a class of MBNs called bus-connected ringed trees (BRTs). A 1-dimensional BRT is shown to have an optimal processor fanout of 2 and to be capable of optimally simulating a complete binary tree and a ring. The results for the 1-dimensional BRT extend to higher dimensional BRTs. In particular, the 2-dimensional BRT is shown to have a constant processor fan-out of 4 and to be capable of efficiently simulating a complete binary tree, ring, and fixed-degree 2-dimensional structures that include the torus, mesh, and mesh of trees. The 2-dimensional BRT serves as a uniform platform on which all algorithms for the above topologies can be run efficiently. (C) 1996 Academic Press, Inc.
