Abstract
  • Efficient routing of messages is critical to the performance of multicomputers. Many adaptive routing algorithms have been proposed to improve the network efficiency; however, they can make only short-sighted decisions to choose a channel for message routing because of limited information about network condition. The short-sighted decisions may cause unnecessary waits at the next clock cycle if the adaptive routing algorithm chooses a channel which has high probability of message block at the next clock cycle. In this thesis, look-ahead routing scheme is introduced to provide better performance for conventional adaptive routing algorithms. The look-ahead scheme as an adaptive routing algorithm makes longer-sighted decision to avoid possible blocks at the next clock cycle. This thesis also simulates the XY, the West-First, and the Double-Y channel routing algorithms, which are deterministic, partially-adaptive and fully-adaptive, respectively, in a 16 x 16 mesh network. Their performances are compared and analyzed. The simulation includes the examination of look-ahead effect for the West-First and the Double-Y channel routing algorithms.
