The OTIS hyper hexa-cell optoelectronic architecture

Optical transpose interconnection system (OTIS) is an optoelectronic architecture that promises to be a great choice for future-generation parallel systems. OTIS combines the advantages of electronic and optical links, where electronic links are used for short distances which require low material cost, and optical links are used for long distances which provide high speed network with low power consumption. Taking into account the advantageous characteristics of OTIS and based on the attractive properties of hyper hexa-cell (HHC) interconnection topology from low diameter and good minimum node degree, this paper introduces a new optoelectronic architecture referred to as OTIS hyper hexa-cell (OHHC). This paper also provides an evaluation and a comparison of the new topology with OTIS-mesh in terms of the following topological properties: size, diameter, maximum and minimum node degree, bisection width, total cost and optical cost. The results of this study proved the excellence of the proposed OHHC over OTIS-mesh in terms of diameter, minimum node degree, bisection width, and optical cost.
