Foil 18 Degree and Diameter of Ring and Mesh(Torus) Architectures

From New CPS615 Foils-- B 28 August 95 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. by Geoffrey C. Fox

Mesh seems to have poor diameter but Dally and Seitz emphasize can make up as easy to build physically (circuits are two dimensional). Thus can have fewer links but as physically short can be "thick" (very high bandwidth)
