Abstract

In this paper, we proposed two region partition multicast routing algorithms for the 3D mesh Interconnection Network to enhance the overall system performance. The proposed two algorithms shorten the network long path latency. Compared to the based multicast routing algorithm, our simulations with six different synthetic workloads reveal that our architecture acquires high system performance.
