Abstract
Multistage interconnection networks (MINs) are frequently proposed as connections in multiprocessor systems or network switches. Delta networks are a subset of MINs and are investigated in this paper. A generator is used to set up automatically systems of equations modeling such delta networks. The model allows to calculate analytically the performance of MINs, e.g. for various buffer sizes. Comparing different buffer sizes helps to determine the optimal size for a given traffic pattern including multicast traffic. The influence of the buffer size on the network throughput and delay for small and large switching elements is also examined. The optimal network parameter choice for a given traffic pattern can be found.
