Abstract
A topology for routing message traffic between interconnecting nodes of a network is provided that includes a plurality of rings having a plurality of interconnecting nodes. A number of trees include at least one leaf at a same relative position of the rings. The trees and the rings form a unique combination that provides superior network performance for moderate numbers of the interconnecting nodes, wherein each interconnecting node has only a limited ability to handle a plurality of links.
