Abstract

Consideration is given to the impact of hot-spot contention in distributed-memory multicomputer systems. Since the binary hypercube network offers a reasonable compromise between network cost and performance, two hypercube-based static interconnection networks are considered. One is a standard binary hypercube and the other is a binary hypercube-based hierarchical interconnection network. The impact of hot-spot contention in both these networks is studied.
