Design and implementation of a prototype optical deflection network.

Design and implementation of a prototype optical deflection network.

We describe the design and implementation of a packet-switched fiber optic interconnect prototype with a ShuffleNet topology, intended for use in shared-memory multiprocessors. Coupled with existing latency-hiding mechanisms, it can reduce latency to remote memory locations. Nodes use deflection rou...
