Abstract

Mobius cube and deBruijn digraph have been proved to be two of the most popular interconnection architectures, due to their desirable properties. Some of the attractive properties of one, however, are not found in the other. The Mobius-deBruijn architecture, proposed in this paper, is the product of Mobius cube and deBruijn digraph, which is a combination of the two architectures. It employs the Mobius cube as a unit cluster and connects many such clusters by means of given number of parallel deBruijn digraphs. Consequently, the Mobius-deBruijn provides some of the desirable properties of both the architectures, such as the flexibility in terms of embedding of parallel algorithms, the high level of fault-tolerant, and the efficient inter-cluster communication. The proposed architecture also possesses the logarithmic diameter, the optimal connectivity, and the simple routing mechanism amenable to network faults. The methodology to construct the Mobius-deBruijn can apply to the product of deBruijn digraph and other hypercube-like networks, and also applies to the product of Kautz digraph and hypercube-like networks.
