Increasing integrated-circuit pin bandwidth has motivateda corresponding increase in the degree or radix of interconnection networksand their routers. This paper introduces the flattened butterfly, a cost-efficient topology for high-radix networks. ...

ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News, vol. 34,no. 2,2006 – CAN
This paper describes the radix-64 folded-Clos network of the Cray BlackWidow scalable vector multiprocessor. We describe the BlackWidow network which scales to 32K processors with a worstcase diameter of seven hops, and the underlying high-radix ...

ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News, vol. 36,no. 3,2008 – CAN
Evolving technology and increasing pin-bandwidth motivate the use of high-radix routers to reduce the diameter, latency, and cost of interconnection networks. High-radix networks, however, require longer cables than their low-radix counterparts. ...

37th International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA 2010), 2010 – ISCA
Numerous studies have shown that datacenter computers rarely operate at full utilization, leading to a number of proposals for creating servers that are energy proportional with respect to the computation that they are performing.

2006 ACM/IEEE conference on Supercomputing, 2006 – ICS
Recent increases in the pin bandwidth of integratedcircuits has motivated an increase in the degree or radix of interconnection network routers. The folded-Clos network can take advantage of these high-radix routers and this paper investigates ...

ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News, vol. 37,no. 3,2009 – CAN
In the near term, Moore's law will continue to provide an increasing number of transistors and therefore an increasing number of on-chip cores. Limited pin bandwidth prevents the integration of a large number of memory controllers on-chip. With many ...

2007 ACM/IEEE Conference on Supercomputing, 2007 – SC
This paper describes the system architecture of the Cray BlackWidow scalable vector multiprocessor. The BlackWidow system is a distributed shared memory (DSM) architecture that is scalable to 32K processors, each with a 4-way dispatch scalar ...
