Abstract :
In this paper we describe a new family of topologies for interconnecting many identical processors to form an MIMD multiprocessor. It extends to arbitrarily many processors while keeping the number of neighbors of any one processor fixed. We show that this family behaves very well with respect to uniformity of bus load, simplicity of routing algorithms, and distance between processors.
