Foil 51 Hypercube Versus Mesh Topologies
From Second set of lectures on CPS615 Parallel Computing Overview CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. byGeoffrey C. Fox *
Hypercube:
Mesh with equivalent wire length
So can let long hypercube wires have "local" stops and hypercube becomes a "thick mesh"
With good routing technologies, a thick mesh is better than a hypercube?
