Abstract :
We show that even if every node or edge in an N-node butterfly network fails independently with some constant probability, p, it is still possible to identify a set of Θ(N) nodes between which packets can be routed in any permutation in O(logN) steps, with high probability. Although the analysis as complicated, the routing algorithm itself is relatively simple
