Title
Evaluation of an Alternative for Increasing Switch Radix
Abstract
In large switch-based interconnection networks, increasing the switch radix results in a decrease in the total number of network components. In this paper we evaluate an interesting strategy for building high-radix switches going beyond the integration scale bounds. This approach is independent of the evolution of single-chip switches and will remain valid as integration scale keeps evolving. Simulation results show that with a correct internal switch design, this kind of switches achieves almost the same performance as single-chip switches with the same radix, which would be unfeasible with current integration scale.
