Basic Data Movement Operations on the LARPBS Model

  • Chapter
Parallel Computing Using Optical Interconnections

Part of the book series: The Springer International Series in Engineering and Computer Science ((SECS,volume 468))

Abstract

Linear array with a reconfigurable pipelined bus system (LARPBS) is a parallel computational model designed based on fiber optics. Many algorithms have been designed for the model by several research groups, and the results show that most of the algorithms can be executed efficiently on the LARPBS model. In this chapter, the main features of the LARPBS model are introduced and several basic data movement operations on the model are described. The scalability issue of the model is also addressed via demonstrating scalable algorithms on the model. Finally, its relation to other similar models is also discussed.
