基于超立方体容错路由算法分析*

基于超立方体的优良的拓扑性质,提出了一个应用于超立方体网络的容错路由算法.该容错路由算法是基于局部信息的,因为路由算法在路由过程中,只需要知道其邻节点的信息,而无须知道其他节点的出错情况.对于给定的源节点和目的节点,路由算法均能够找到一条最优容错路径,并且可以预防死锁.模拟实验结果表明,路由算法所构造的路由路径长度接近于两个节点之间的最优路径长度.     

一种新的交叉立方体最短路径路由算法

Efe提出的交叉立方体(crossed cube)是超立方体(hypercube)的一种变型.交叉立方体的某些性质优于超立方体,比如其直径几乎是超立方体的一半.Efe提出了时间复杂度为O(n2)的交叉立方体最短路径路由算法.Chang等人扩展了Efe的算法,时间复杂度为O(n),它在路由的每一步有更多条边作为最短路径可供寻路选择.但这些边并没有包含全部可进行最短路径路由的边.文中给出了结点各边可进行最短路径路由的充要条件,并在此基础上提出了一种时间复杂度为O(n2)的交叉立方体最短路径路由算法,它在路由的每一步都将所有的最短路径边作为候选边.理论分析和实例表明它可输出任意一条最短路径.     

基于NPV广义超立方体最佳容错路由算法

在网络可靠性研究中,设计较好的容错路由策略、尽可能多地记录系统中最优通路信息,一直是一项重要的研究工作.超立方体系统的容错路由算法分为可回溯算法和无回溯算法.一般说来,可回溯算法的优点是容错能力强:只要消息的源节点和目的节点有通路,该算法就能够找到把消息传递到目的地的路径;其缺点是在很多情况下传递路径不能按实际存在的最短路径传递.其代表是深度优先搜索(DFS)算法.无回溯算法是近几年人们比较关注的算法.该算法通过记录各邻接节点的故障信息,给路由算法以启发信息,使消息尽可能按实际存在的最短路径传递.这些算法的共同缺点是只能计算出Hamming距离不超过n的路由.在n维超立方体系统连通图中,如果系统存在大量的故障,不少节点对之间的最短路径大于n,因此,这些算法的容错能力差.提出了一个实例说明采用上述算法将遗失60%的路由信息.另外,由于超立方体的结构严格,实际中的真正超立方体系统不多.事实上,不少的网络系统可转换为具有大量错误节点和错误边的超立方体系统.因此,研究能适应具有大量错误节点和错误边的超立方体系统的容错路由算法是一个很有实际价值的工作.研究探讨了:(1) 定义广义超立方体系统;(2) 在超立方体系统中提出了节点通路向量(NPV)概念及其计算规则;(3) 提出了中转点技术,使得求NPV的计算复杂度降低到O(n);(4) 提出了基于NPV的广义超立方体系统最佳容错路由算法(OFTRS),该算法是一种分布式的和基于相邻节点信息的算法.由于NPV记录了超立方体系统全部最优通路和次最优通路的信息,在具有大量故障的情况下,它不会遗漏任何一条最优通路和次最优通路信息,从而实现了高效的容错路由.在这一点上,它优于其他算法.     

故障超立方体网络中的路由算法

The crossed cube architecture for parallel computation

The construction of a crossed cube which has many of the properties of the hypercube, but has diameter only about half as large, is discussed. This network is self-routing, in the sense that there is a simple distributed routing algorithm which guarantees optimal paths between any pair of vertices. This fact, together with other properties such as regularity, symmetry, high connectivity, and a simple recursive structure, suggests that the crossed cube may be an attractive alternative to the ordinary hypercube for massively parallel architectures, SIMD algorithms, which utilize the architecture are developed, and it is shown that the CQ_n architecture can profitably emulate the ordinary hypercube. It is also shown that addition of simple switches can improve the capabilities of the system significantly. For instance, the dynamic reconfiguration capability allows hypercube algorithms to be executed on the proposed architecture. The use of these switches also improves the embedding properties of the system     

The twisted-cube connected networks

This paper presents a new interconnection network topology,called the twisted-cube connected network,which is a generation of the twisted 3-cube.The twisted-cube connected network is a variant of the hyercube,and it has a better recursive structure.The regularity,connectivities,subgraphs of the twistedcube connected network are studied.The twisted-cube connected network is proved to be a 3-cube-free network,which is the essential difference from the hypercube and variants of the hypercube.An efficient routing algorithm is proposed,and the diameter of n-dimensional twisted-cube connected network is proved to be just[n 1/2] which is less than that of the hypercube.     

Diagnosability of crossed cubes under the comparison diagnosismodel

Diagnosability of a multiprocessor system is an important study topic in the parallel processing area. As a hypercube variant, the crossed cube has many attractive properties. The diameter, wide diameter and fault diameter of it are all approximately half those of the hypercube. The power with which the crossed cube simulates trees and cycles is stronger than the hypercube. Because of these advantages, the crossed cube has attracted much attention from researchers. In this paper, we show that the n-dimensional crossed cube is n-diagnosable under a major diagnosis model-the comparison diagnosis model proposed by Malek and Maeng (1981) if n ⩾ 4. According to this, the polynomial algorithm presented by Sengupta and Dahbura (1992) may be used to diagnose the n-dimensional crossed cube, provided that the number of the faulty nodes in the n-dimensional crossed cube does not exceed n. The conclusion also indicates that the diagnosability of the n-dimensional crossed cube is the same as that of the n-dimensional hypercube when n ⩾ 5 and better than that of the n-dimensional hypercube when n = 4

Comments on “Hierarchical cubic networks”

Ghose and Desai (1995) introduced a new interconnection for large-scale distributed memory multiprocessors called the Hierarchical Cubic Network (HCN). The HCN is topologically superior to a comparable hypercube. They also proposed optimal routing algorithms for the HCN and obtained its diameter, which is about three-fourths the diameter of a comparable hypercube. However, their routing algorithm is not distance-optimal. In this paper, we propose an optimal routing algorithm for the HCN and show that HCN has about two-thirds the diameter of a comparable hypercube     

网络容错路由算法概率分析的一种新的方法

该文提出了一种新的概率分析方法来研究在给定结点错误概率的情况下超立方体网络强容错路由算法的容错性的概率。针对文中提出的基于新的局部连通性网络容错模型的高效的强容错路由算法犤1犦,该文首次严格证明了一个具有1024个结点的10维超立方体网络能够容许多达4.7%的错误结点而具有99%的概率确保找到正确结点组成的路径,而如果结点的错误概率不超过0.1%,则所有实际规模的超立方体网络能够具有99.9%的概率确保找到正确结点组成的路径。该算法的时间性能是最优的,且该算法构造的路径的长度不超过源结点和目的结点之间海明距离的两倍加上一个很小的常数。     

基于局部扭曲立方体的多播路由算法

局部扭曲立方体是一种新提出来用于并行计算的互联网络。经研究发现,局部扭曲立方体中已有最小路由算法存在着死锁。因此,在原有算法的基础上,提出了一种新的无死锁路由算法并给出了无死锁证明。利用将物理通道分成两条虚拟通道进而形成两个不相交的虚拟网络,将不同的点对之间的路由限定在某一个虚拟网络中,从而有效地避免了死锁的产生。同时,利用一个局部扭曲立方体可由两个低维子立文体和2-扭曲立方体构成这一性质,在局部的低维子立方体和2-扭曲立方体中均采用自适应路由,从而提高了算法的自适应性。在此基础上提出了一种多播路由算法。     

Edge congestion and topological properties of crossed cubes

An n-dimensional crossed cube, CQ_n, is a variation of hypercubes. In this paper, we give a new shortest path routing algorithm based on a new distance measure defined herein. In comparison with Efe's algorithm, which generates one shortest path in O(n²) time, our algorithm can generate more shortest paths in O(n) time. Based on a given shortest path routing algorithm, we consider a new performance measure of interconnection networks called edge congestion. Using our shortest path routing algorithm and assuming that message exchange between all pairs of vertices is equally probable, we show that the edge congestion of crossed cubes is the same as that of hypercubes. Using the result of edge congestion, we can show that the bisection width of crossed cubes is 2^n-1. We also prove that wide diameter and fault diameter are [n/2]+2. Furthermore, we study embedding of cycles in cross cubes and construct more types than previous work of cycles of length at least four     

The twisted crossed cube

The topology of interconnection networks plays an important role in the performance of parallel and distributed computing systems. In this paper, we propose a new interconnection network called twisted crossed cube (TCQ_n) and investigate its basic network properties in terms of the regularity, connectivity, fault tolerance, recursiveness, hamiltonicity and ability to simulate other architectures, and so on. Then, we develop an effective routing algorithm Route (u, v) for TCQ_n that takes no more than d(u, v) + 1 steps for any two nodes (u, v) to communicate with each other, and the routing process shows that the diameter, wide diameter, and fault‐tolerant diameter of TCQ_n are about half of the corresponding diameters of the equivalent hypercube with the same dimension. In the end, by combining TCQ_n with crossed cube (CQ_n), we propose a preferable dynamic network structure, that is, the dynamic crossed cube, which has the same network diameter as TCQ_n/CQ_n and better properties in other respects, for example, its connection complexity is half of that of TCQ_n/CQ_n when the network scale is large enough, and the number of its average routing steps is also much smaller than that in TCQ_n/CQ_n.

On Embedding Hamiltonian Cycles in Crossed Cubes

We study the embedding of Hamiltonian cycle in the Crossed Cube, which is a prominent variant of the classical hypercube, obtained by crossing some straight links of a hypercube, and has been attracting much research interest in literatures since its proposal. We will show that due to the loss of link-topology regularity, generating Hamiltonian cycles in a crossed cube is a more complicated procedure than in its original counterpart. The paper studies how the crossed links affect an otherwise succinct process to generate a host of well-structured Hamiltonian cycles traversing all nodes. The condition for generating these Hamiltonian cycles in a crossed cube is proposed. An algorithm is presented that works out a Hamiltonian cycle for a given link permutation. The useful properties revealed and the algorithm proposed in this paper can find their way when system designers evaluate a candidate network's competence and suitability, balancing regularity and other performance criteria, in choosing an interconnection network.
