Abstract

A new routing algorithm is proposed in this correspondence for the network architecture developed in [1]. It has been shown that this algorithm gives the shortest path between the source to destination, when all the processors and the communication links of the network are non- faulty. For the situation when some of the processors are faulty, a heuristic function is given, which if used in the routing algorithm will give shortest path from the source to destination, if such a path exists.
