Abstract
As a multicomputer structure, the balanced hypercube is a variant of the standard hypercube for multicomputers, with desirable properties of strong connectivity, regularity, and symmetry. This structure is a special type of load balanced graph designed to tolerate processor failure. In balanced hypercubes, each processor has a backup (matching) processor that shares the same set of neighboring nodes. Therefore, tasks that run on a faulty processor can be reactivated in the backup processor to provide efficient system reconfiguration. In this paper, we study the implementation of balanced hypercubes in VLSI using the Wafer Scale Integration (VLSI/WSI) technology. Emphasis is on VLSI/WSI layout and area estimates. Our results show that the balanced hypercube can be implemented at least as efficient as the standard hypercube in an area layout and more efficient in a linear layout.
