A parallel routing algorithm on circulant networks employing the Hamiltonian circuit latin square

摘要

Double-loop [J. Bermond, F. Comellas, D. Hsu, Distributed Loop Computer Networks: A Survey, J. Parallel and Distributed Computing, Academic Press, 24 (1995) 2-10] and 2-circulant networks (2-CN) [J. Park, Cycle Embedding of Faulty Recursive Circulants, J. of Korea Info. Sci. Soc. 31 (2) (2004) 86-94] are widely used in the design and implementation of local area networks and parallel processing architectures. In this paper, we investigate the routing of a message on circulant networks, that is a key to the performance of this network. We would like to transmit 2k packets from a source node to a destination node simultaneously along paths on G(n; +/-s(1), +/-s(2),..., +/-s(k)), where the ith packet traverses along the ith path (1 <= i <= 2k). In order for all packets to arrive at the destination node quickly and securely, the ith path must be node-disjoint from all other paths. For construction of these paths, employing the Hamiltonian circuit latin square (HCLS), a special class of (n x n) matrices, we present O(n(2)) parallel routing algorithm on circulant networks.
