Title:

トーラス区画化を容易にするために並列コンピュータのプロセッサを相互接続する方法およびシステム

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP3982634

Kind Code:

B2

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method and system of interconnecting L processors of a parallel computer to facilitate torus partitioning, (a) where each of the processors includes a processing unit and a switch, (b) where the switch includes a first external port, a second external port, a third external port, a fourth external port, a first internal port, and a second internal port, (c) where the L processors comprise R non-overlapping partitions, (d) where each of the partitions comprises the processing unit of at least one of the processors, and (e) where L is an integer >=2 and R is an integer >=1. In an exemplary embodiment, the method and system include connecting the L switches of the L processors among the external ports of the L switches in an extended torus architecture and setting the connected L switches thereby interconnecting each of the partitions as a torus.
