Abstract
Optical interconnection networks have potential uses in photonic switc hing systems and parallel processing computers. This paper presents a general algorithm, the so-called graph analysis method (GAM), to deter mine the topological equivalence of optical interconnection networks. Experimental results of an optical implementation of a 64 X 64-array c rossover interconnections are also reported.
