Abstract

The concept of multiplex interconnection networks is proposed to attack the communication crisis in massively parallel computing in the next generation. In the multiplex interconnection network, multiplexable information carries, such as optical wavelengths, are employed, so that large-scale communication topologies can be embedded in the virtual space of multiplexable carriers with reduced interconnections. This paper discusses a systematic multiplexing scheme for the class of interconnection networks defined by bit-permute-complement (BPC) permutations. It is shown that using the proposed technique, the wiring area can be reduced by less than the factor of 1/r using r kinds of multiplexable components.
