Abstract

An aspect includes deadlock-free routing on arbitrary network topologies using edge-disjoint sub-networks. A network topology of a network is identified. The network includes a plurality of links between a plurality of switches. Each of the links is identified as an edge. A plurality of edge-disjoint sub-networks is constructed from the network topology of the network by routing configuration logic. The plurality of edge-disjoint sub-networks is formed by edges between the switches such that the edges are disjoint relative to each of the edge-disjoint sub-networks. The switches are configured to route traffic on the network with each route staying entirely within one of the plurality of edge-disjoint sub-networks within the network.
