Abstract

Multistage interconnection network provide communication among processors, memory modules and other devices in parallel computer systems. These networks are designed to provide fast and efficient communication with a reasonable cost. The number of stages, interconnection topology, and network configuration differentiate the reliability of each network. Reliability is used to measure the system capability to transform information from input to output devices and its depends on the reliability of its component. Evaluation of reliability of interconnection network has been attempted by researchers in the past. This paper is an depth study of reliability evaluation in multistage interconnection network. The measurement includes terminal reliability of regular network known as shuffle exchange network and gamma network.
