Abstract
A scalable parallel packet router comprises a massively parallel computer 10 and a plurality of multiplexers 15, and is controlled by a disclosed packet routing algorithm, and a method of very high-speed packet routing. The method includes selection of an destination node by computing a hash function from source and destination addresses of a packet, so the ordering of packets is preserved.
