BSN MOT: A Fast and Cost-efficient Optoelectronic Architecture

Abstract

Recently, an efficient recursive and symmetrical optoelectronic interconnection network based on biswapped framework named “Biswapped-Hyper Hexa-Cell (BSN HHC)” is reported. In spite of containing a prime advantage concerning network diameter compared to its competitive Biswapped-Mesh (BSN Mesh) optoelectronic architecture; a major limitation of the network is its high cost. In a search for a competitive alternative variation of this network, a fast and a cost-efficient member of biswapped family named “Biswapped-Mesh of Trees (BSN MOT)” is proposed here. The suggested BSN MOT optoelectronic network claims to be a better alternative of counter-part OTIS-Mesh of Trees (OTIS MOT) optoelectronic network, claims advantages concerning diameter, minimum node degree, and network total and optical cost (total cost drops about 10–30% and optical cost drops about 50%). More specifically, compared to competitive Biswapped-Mesh and BSN HHC optoelectronic networks, the proposed network has a major advantage concerning network diameter. Moreover, BSN MOT is a cost-efficient architecture, where total network cost drops about 30–45% than that of BSN HHC. Besides, it is a better alternative for processing numerical problems that require network with “low static maximum node degree”. Thus, on the basis of above-mentioned properties, the proposed network claims to be the most economical and the fastest variation of biswapped framework.
