| Abstract | Passive star-coupled optical interconnects with wavelength-division multiplexing hold a strong potential for realizing flexible large-scale multicomputer networks. Virtual point-to-point regular connectivities can be defined and modified in a network with broadcast-select routing via distributed wavelength assignment to the nodes. The system size in this approach is bound by the number of separable wavelength channels. The paper proposes a network class that achieves scalability by grouping the nodes into clusters and employing a separate pair of broadcast and select couplers with each cluster. Interconnecting the clusters according to a regular topology results in a modular architecture with reconfigurable partitions and significantly reduced fiber link density. This approach efficiently combines wavelength-division with direct space interconnection, taking advantage of the properties of each. For the topologies of most significance to parallel computing, the paper studies conflict-free wavelength assignment that maximizes spatial reuse, identifies the valid network partitions, and evaluates the fiber link density and both space and wavelength channel throughput improvement. The results show that cube and shuffle networks take most advantage of the proposed approach in terms of maximizing wavelength reuse. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
