Abstract
Simple deterministic O(log N)-step algorithms for routing packets on a multibutterfly are described. The algorithms are shown to be robust against faults, even in the worst case, and to be efficient from a practical point of view. As a consequence, the multibutterfly is shown to be an excellent candidate for a high-bandwidth, low-diameter switching network underlying a distributed-memory machine.
