Adaptive routing in mesh-connected networks

Abstract
Wormhole routing in mesh-connected networks can be deadlock free and adaptive without the addition of channels to the basic topologies. Previous routing algorithms for meshes have been either deadlock free and nonadaptive or deadlock free and adaptive at the expense of adding physical or virtual channels. Our model for designing adaptive, deadlock-free routing algorithms is based on analyzing the directions in which packets can turn in a mesh. Prohibiting just a quarter of the turns in a 2D or...
