Abstract

Based on the classical voltage graph theory, we develop a new representation scheme for interconnection network structures. We show that all popular interconnection networks have very simple and intuitive representations under the new scheme. The new representation scheme offers powerful tools for the study of network routing and network emulation. As examples, we present simple constructions for optimal network emulations from cube-connected cycles networks to butterfly networks, and from butterfly networks to hypercube networks.
