EXPLOITING SPARSENESS OF COMMUNICATION PATTERNS FOR THE DESIGN OF NETWORKS IN MASSIVELY PARALLEL SUPERCOMPUTERS

A limited set of Processing Element (PE) pairs in a parallel computer cover the internal communications of scalable parallel programs. We take advantage of this property using the concept of Sparse Flat Neighborhood Networks (Sparse FNNs). Sparse FNNs are network designs that provide single-switch l...
