In this paper we propose the OPTNET, a novel optical network and associated coherence protocol for scalable multiprocessors. The network divides its channels into broadcast and po...
This paper compares the performance of hierarchical ring- and mesh-connected wormhole routed shared memory multiprocessor networks in a simulation study. Hierarchical rings are in...
We present a customizable simulator called netsim for high-performance point-to-point workstation networks that is accurate enough to be used for application-level performance ana...
