Abstract

Multidimensional switch data networks are disclosed, such as are used by a distributed-memory parallel computer, as applied for example to computations in the field of life sciences. A distributed memory parallel computing system comprises a number of parallel compute nodes and a message passing data network connecting the compute nodes together. The data network connecting the compute nodes comprises a multidimensional switch data network of compute nodes having N dimensions, and a number/array of compute nodes Ln in each of the N dimensions. Each compute node includes an N port routing element having a port for each of the N dimensions. Each compute node of an array of Ln compute nodes in each of the N dimensions connects through a port of its routing element to an Ln port crossbar switch having Ln ports. Several embodiments are disclosed of a 4 dimensional computing system having 65,536 compute nodes.
