Systolic Routing in Sparse Optical Torus

Abstract. In this paper we present an all-optical network architecture and a systolic routing protocol for it. The sparse optical torus network consists of an n×n torus, where processors are deployed diagonally. The systolic routing protocol ensures that no electro-optical conversion is needed in the intermediate routing nodes and all the packets injected into the routing machinery will reach their targets without collisions.
