Abstract

In this paper, a general class of multiple-clique structures is presented. The interconnection is based on a mixed radix number system that results in a variety of multiple-clique structures for a given number of processors N = x' . 2^y, where x and y are positive integers. A number of interested properties of the network are presented. By a constructive method, the node connectivity of the multiple-clique network is found. We then show that the graph is super-@l and is an optimal reliable structure for interconnection networks. The structure also possesses many other useful properties, such as small average message distance, Hamiltonian, point transitive, etc.
