F. Harary et M. Malek, VARIATIONS ON A HYPERCUBE - EMBELLISHMENTS OF PARALLEL ARCHITECTURES, Mathematical and computer modelling, 17(11), 1993, pp. 105-111
The binary hypercube is one of the most widely used interconnection ne
tworks in parallel computer architectures. However, it does not expres
s explicitly all of the topological features occurring in real paralle
l systems. A first step toward this goal is presented here by combinin
g a hypercube with other graphs. The resulting deeper insight allows a
more precise modeling and analysis of real architectures. The binary
operations include Cartesian product, composition of edges, corona, an
d join.
