Augmented Cube

The [Formula: see text]-dimensional augmented cube [Formula: see text], proposed by Choudum and Sunitha in 2002, is one of the most famous interconnection networks of the distributed parallel system. Reliability evaluation of underlying topological structures is vital for fault tolerance analysis of this system. As one of the most extensively studied parameters, the [Formula: see text]-conditional edge-connectivity of a connected graph [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], is defined as the minimum number of the cardinality of the edge-cut of [Formula: see text], if exists, whose removal disconnects this graph and keeps each component of [Formula: see text] having minimum degree at least [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be three integers, where [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we determine the exact value of the [Formula: see text]-conditional edge-connectivity of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for each positive integer [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and give an affirmative answer to Shinde and Borse’s corresponding conjecture on this topic in [On edge-fault tolerance in augmented cubes, J. Interconnection Netw. 20(4) (2020), DOI:10.1142/S0219265920500139].

Fault tolerance is an important issue in interconnection networks, and the traditional edge connectivity is an important measure to evaluate the robustness of an interconnection network. The component edge connectivity is a generalization of the traditional edge connectivity. The [Formula: see text]-component edge connectivity [Formula: see text] of a non-complete graph [Formula: see text] is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph with at least [Formula: see text] components. Let [Formula: see text] be an integer and [Formula: see text] be the decomposition of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. In this note, we determine the [Formula: see text]-component edge connectivity of the hypercube [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we classify the corresponding optimal solutions.

Connectivity plays an important role in measuring the fault tolerance of interconnection networks. As a topology structure of interconnection networks, the m-ary n-dimensional hypercube [Formula: see text] has many good properties. In this paper, we prove, by elementary method, that [Formula: see text] is tightly [Formula: see text] super connected [Formula: see text] and super edge-connected [Formula: see text].

High Degree

The hypercube is one of the most popular interconnection networks due to its structural regularity, potential for parallel computation of various algorithms, and the high degree of fault tolerance. In this paper, we introduce a tree called l-sibling trees and the main results obtained in this paper are: (1) For r ≥ 1, the minimum wirelength of embedding r-dimensional hypercube into r-dimensional l-sibling tree. (2) For r ≥ 1, embedding of r-dimensional extended l-sibling tree into caterpillar with minimum dilation. (3) Based on the proof of (1), we provide an O(r)-linear time algorithm to compute the minimum wirelength of embedding r-dimensional hypercube into r-dimensional l-sibling tree.

New Class

This paper proposes a technique to modify a Multistage Interconnection Network (MIN) to augment it with fault tolerant capabilities. The augmented MIN is referred to as Enhanced MIN (E-MIN). The technique employed for construction of E-MIN is compared with the two known physical fault tolerance techniques, namely, extra staging and chaining. EMINs are found to be more generic than extra staged networks and less expensive than chained networks. The EMIN realizes all the permutations realizable by the original MIN. The routing strategies under faulty and fault free conditions are shown to be very simple in the case of E-MINs.
