Abstract

This correspondence analyzes the permuting properties of a reconfigurable multicomputer architecture based on a regular rectangular SW-banyan interconnection network with arbitrary fan-out and an arbitrary number of stages. An analytical expression for the total number of distinct permutations performable by a rectangular SW-banyan (in one pass) is derived. It is shown how the combinatorial power of a rectangular SW-banyan increases with the growth of its fan-out. It is also shown that a two-pass (unidirectional) rectangular SW-banyan network can be made rearrangeable by a proper choice of the feedback connection.
