This book was released on 1995 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents the development and use of a performance analysis methodology suitable for use in the evaluation of multiprocessor interconnection networks. The study is grounded in a detailed evaluation of the Cedar multiprocessor. Using characteristics of the behavior exhibited by the benchmarks studied on that system, a burst-traffic model is developed. The performance predictions of the model for adaptive and oblivious virtual-channel routers used in a 2D torus are compared to those of an open-loop random-traffic model, and significant differences are shown to exist. The design of a novel adaptive router, the Shunt router, is proposed. Proofs of its freedom from deadlock and livelock are provided, showing its suitability for use in the construction of a shared-memory multiprocessor. The burst traffic model is used to drive simple versions of the Shunt router and compare its performance to those of the virtual-channel routers discussed previously. The Shunt router is shown to provide a suitable base for explorations of alterations to the routing algorithms and size of buffers within the router, due to its simplicity of structure. The Shunt router is then augmented with a variety of adaptive routing algorithms. The performance of these algorithms, as well as two oblivious routing algorithms, is evaluated. The results show that structure in oblivious routing is important, and several adaptive routing schemes perform equally well. The Shunt router is also used to evaluate the impact of queue sizes on performance, as well as the interaction between queue lengths and adaptivity. Finally, a traffic-throttling network interface is used, with results that show it is primarily useful in cases of limited router buffering. Analytic performance bounds are developed, and used to place the improvements due to adaptive routing into perspective. These bounds are derived from considerations of the systems topology and the structure of the burst-traffic model. Minimum latency, bisection-width, and a complex mean value analysis model are developed, and each is shown to have utility in different areas of performance prediction and comparison. Given the context of the performance bounds, the adaptive routers are shown to achieve a significant percentage of the potential performance improvement.

Download or read book Crossbar Based Interconnection Networks written by Mohsen Jahanshahi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique text/reference provides an overview of crossbar-based interconnection networks, offering novel perspectives on these important components of high-performance, parallel-processor systems. A particular focus is placed on solutions to the blocking and scalability problems. Topics and features: introduces the fundamental concepts in interconnection networks in multi-processor systems, including issues of blocking, scalability, and crossbar networks; presents a classification of interconnection networks, and provides information on recognizing each of the networks; examines the challenges of blocking and scalability, and analyzes the different solutions that have been proposed; reviews a variety of different approaches to improve fault tolerance in multistage interconnection networks; discusses the scalable crossbar network, which is a non-blocking interconnection network that uses small-sized crossbar switches as switching elements. This invaluable work will be of great benefit to students, researchers and practitioners interested in computer networks, parallel processing and reliability engineering. The text is also essential reading for course modules on interconnection network design and reliability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis provides a comparative analysis of various interconnection networks and multiprocessor systems. The Shuffle-Exchange multistage interconnection Network (SEN) and its variants are evaluated and compared. Comparison is based on reliability, composite measures of performance and reliability, and cost. Closed-form expressions for the computation of the available bandwidth for multiprocessor systems with a capability of graceful degradation are developed. The time dependent reliability of the SEN and three fault-tolerant schemes aimed at improving system reliability are examined. These schemes are the redundant network, the extra stage network, and the network augmented with intrastage links. Exact closed-form expressions for the time-dependent reliability of the N x N Shuffle-Exchange Network (SEN), the 8 x 8 and 16 x 16 SEN with an additional stage (SEN+), and the 4 X 4 and 8 X 8 Augmented SEN (ASEN) are derived. Upper and lower bounds useful for the analysis of larger SEN+ and ASEN networks are derived. Performability analysis of a complete multiprocessor system is conducted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Performance of a system depends directly on the time required to perform an operation and number of these operations that can be performed concurrently. High performance computing systems can be designed using parallel processing. The effectiveness of these parallel systems rests primarily on the communication network linking processors and memory modules. Hence, an interconnection network that provides the desired connectivity and performance at minimum cost is required for communication in parallel processing systems. Multistage interconnection networks provide a compromise between shared bus and crossbar networks.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Multistage interconnection networks (Banyan networks) are frequently proposed as connections in multiprocessor systems, in ATM switches or in Gigabit Ethernet switches. There exist several analytical models describing the performance of such networks. Using analytical models the performance can be determined much faster than by simulation. On the other hand, the development of an analytical model is very time-consuming. In this paper, we present a method for an automatic and fast generation of an analytical network model. The generated analysis copes with networks of arbitrary size, arbitrary switching element sizes, arbitrary buffer lengths in each network stage, an arbitrary (but uniform) traffic pattern including multicast traffic, and an arbitrarily chosen network load."
