Title
An analytical model of adaptive wormhole routing with time-out
Abstract
Although many adaptive routing algorithms have been proposed for wormhole-routed networks, it is necessary to have clear understanding of the factors that affect their potential performance before they can be widely adopted in commercial multicomputers. This paper proposes a new analytical model of an adaptive routing algorithm proposed by Duato [Future Gener. Comp. Sys. 10 (10) (1994) 45]. The main feature of this routing algorithm is the use of a time-out mechanism to select a particular class of virtual channels at a given router. This has the advantage of reducing virtual channels multiplexing, leading to improvement in network performance. Simulation experiments reveal that the proposed analytical model predicts message latency with a good degree of accuracy.
