Abstract:
This paper is devoted to non-blocking optoelectronic networks in which group operations over a set of numbers are executed during the
transmission of one number. The execution of group operations by photonic units
placed at each network user is considered, and the circuitry of these units is
presented. The possibility of executing group operations in cyclic sequences
of nodes defined by Hamilton graphs is investigated. Procedures for constructing
such cyclic sequences and executing group operations in them are proposed. The
possibility of designing a non-blocking electronic system area network for any
number of users is studied. A method for designing an optoelectronic network as
a tandem network with optoelectronic switches controlled by their analogs from
the electronic network is described.
Key words and phrases:non-blocking system area networks, group operations, photonic and optoelectronic switches, Hamilton loops of network nodes, non-blocking tandem networks.
