Abstract
Interconnection networks play an essential role in the architecture of high-performance computing (HPC) systems. In this article, we explore the Galaxyfly family to build flexible-scale interconnection networks. Galaxyfly is guaranteed to retain a small constant diameter while achieving a flexible tradeoff between network scale and bisection bandwidth. Galaxyfly not only supports small-scale interconnection networks with smaller diameter but also lowers the demands for high-radix routers and is able to utilize routers with moderate radix to build exascale interconnection networks. We analyze the constructible configuration of Galaxyfly and evaluate the properties of Galaxyfly. We conduct extensive simulations and analysis to evaluate the performance, cost, and power consumption of Galaxyfly on physical layout against state-of-the-art topologies. The results show that our design achieves better performance than most existing topologies under typical HPC workloads, and is cost-effective to deploy for exascale HPC systems.
