Performance analysis of multibuffered packet-switching networks in multiprocessor systems

Abstract
An analytic model and analytic results for the performance of multibuffered packet-switching interconnection networks in multiprocessor systems are presented. The performance of single-buffered delta networks is first modeled using the state transition diagram of a buffer. The model is then extended to account for multiple buffers. The analytic results for multibuffered delta networks are compared to simulation results. The performance of multibuffered data manipulator networks is analyzed to demonstrate the generality of the model.<>
