Abstract :
This paper studies k-ary Data Vortex networks with/without node buffering. The 4-ary networks gain more performance benefit than that in the original binary Data Vortex with the buffer due to significantly reduced traffic backpressure that is present in bufferless operations. Additional cost should be justified for such performance enhancement.
