Processor Allocation in Extended Hypercube Multiprocessor

Processor allocation is an important issue for efficient utilization of a multiprocessor system. Several well-known methods exist for processor allocation in the hypercube multiprocessor. Some disadvantages of the hypercube structure have been overcome in the Extended Hypercube. The paper attempts at showing how the processor allocation schemes of hypercube can be extended to the Extended Hypercube structure. Results of a simulation study are also provided.
