Title
The twisted cube
Abstract
Properties that make the binary cube an attractive interconnection network for many-processor machines include expansibility, a simple routing-algorithm, and a diameter that grows logarithmically with the number of processors. In this paper we introduce an operation called twist that diverts two edges. By applying a twist to a number of judiciously chosen edges a cube is transformed into a so-called twisted cube. We show that the twisted cube has a diameter which is roughly half the diameter of the original cube, that a routing algorithm exists, albeit a more complex one, and that expansibility is retained.
