Abstract :
Mesh interconnect can be efficiently utilized while tree networks encourage the short routing distances. In this paper, we present the property analysis of a cluster-based interconnect model on a set of key architectural parameters. The evaluations show that the analyzed structure is not only insensitive to the various parameters for the formulation of that architecture, but also admits more designs with potential high performance improvement.
