AN ADAPTIVE FAULT-TOLERANT WORMHOLE ROUTING ALGORITHM FOR HYPERCUBES
2000
In this paper, we present an adaptive fault-tolerant wormhole routing algorithm for hypercubes by using 4 virtual networks. Each node is identified to be in one of the four states: safe, ordinarily unsafe, strongly unsafe, and faulty. Based on the concept of unsafe nodes, we design a routing algorithm for hypercubes that can tolerate at least n-1 faulty nodes and can route a message via a path of length no more than the Hamming distance between the source and destination plus four. Previous algorithms which achieve the same fault tolerant ability need at least 5 virtual channels per physical channel. Simulation results show that our algorithm outperforms previous known results.
