A contention-free unicast-based multicast algorithm is developed for wormhole-routed star graph interconnection networks. Since the size of the buffers in the wormhole routing controller is much smaller than the size of the message, only destination nodes of multicast should receive message and stor

โฆ Synopsis
We propose a new broadcasting algorithm in star graph connected networks with wormhole routing. We use the usual single-port communication model with intermediate node reception capability where a node can communicate with a single neighbor at any instant of time. Lower bound under the model is derived and ecient algorithms are developed to achieve broadcasting in O(n) communication time in a star graph S n (with n! nodes which is sublogarithmic in the number of nodes in the network).

Multicast is an important collective communication operation on multicomputer systems, in which the same message is delivered from a source node to an arbitrary number of destination nodes. The star graph interconnection network has been recognized as an attractive alternative to the popular hypercu
Broadcasting in a communications network has been the subject of many studies in recent years. The studies vary in their assumptions governing the behavior of the network and in their objectives with respect to the network. Almost all the work to date uses the unit transmission time assumption, that
It is well known that star graphs are strongly resilient like the n cubes in the sense that they are optimally fault tolerant and the fault diameter is increased only by one in the presence of maximum number of allowable faults. We investigate star graphs under the conditions of forbidden faulty set
