In this paper, we describe a switch design which improves network performance under both uniform and hot spot traffic. The central idea of this design is to provide two independent routes from each input port to each output port in a switch. Messages routed through a switch are clustered into two groups which utilize two independent route. Simulation shows that the new switch design improves network perfor- The work performed by Y. H. Lee was supported in part by a grant from the Florida High Technology and Industry Council.

N2 - The major performance drawbacks of multistage interconnection networks are due to link contention and message blockage. To remedy this problem, the authors propose a switch design which uses two independent routes between each input port and each output port within a switch. With proper routing control mechanisms, the adverse effect on link conflicts can be greatly reduced. Various simulations are used to illustrate the performance improvement of this new design under both uniform and hot-spot traffic patterns.
