The reason of this attention comes from the fact that they are permutations for general-purpose computing like the simultaneous conflict-free access to the rows or the columns of a matrix. In this paper we address the problem of the optimal routing of omega and inverse omega permutations on hypercubes under the MIMD queueless communication model. We revisit the problem through a new paradigm: the so-called graphs partitioning in order to take advantage of the recursive structure of the hypercubes topology. We prove that omega permutations are partitionable. That is any omega permutation on n-dimensional hypercube can be decomposed in two independent permutations on two disjoint (n-1)-dimensional hypercubes. We also prove that each one of these permutations is also an omega permutation. It follows that any omega permutation on n-dimensional hypercube is routable in at most n steps of data exchanges, each step realizing the partition of the hypercube.
