An Efficient Multicast Scheme in k Array n Cube Networks
k元n方网络中的优化多播策略

This paper presents a new efficient scheme to implement multicast communication in wormhole switching torus networks. Relied on the concept of partition, divided the network into several blocks, this scheme can achieve high degree of parallelism. Combined with adaptive routing algorithm for unicast, the multicast algorithm can achieve low communication delay, low standard deviation and high throughput. Performance results of a simulation study on torus with 512 nodes are also given.
