Improved Architectures For Massive Holographic Interconnection Network

Practical difficulties to be encountered in the implementation of massive optical interconnects are outlined and some improved architectures are proposed. The long term optimum design uses currently unavailable large arrays of laser diodes. An interim solution using available spatial light modulators is shown to allow roughly 1011 interconnections per second.
