Abstract
This paper addresses the combinatorial problem of constructing a minim al cost, bused, interconnection among a set of modules (Or processors) . Although some work has been reported on bused interconnection betwee n modules, the compuational complexity of the problem has not Peen pre viously addressed. We show that the optimization problem of finding a minimal cost interconnection among modules to realize a certain set of data transfers is NP-Hard.
