The necklace hypercube has recently been introduced as an attractive alternative to the well-known hypercube. Previous research on this network topology has mainly focused on topological properties, VLSI and algorithmic aspects of this network. Several analytical models have been proposed in the literature for different interconnection networks, as the most cost-effective tools to evaluate the performance merits of such systems. This paper proposes an analytical performance model to predict message latency in wormhole-switched necklace hypercube interconnection networks with fully adaptive routing. The analysis focuses on a fully adaptive routing algorithm which has been shown to be the most...

The necklace hypercube network has recently been introduced as an attractive alternative to the well-known hypercube. Previous research on this network topology has mainly focused on topological properties and VLSI aspects of this network. In this paper, we propose some adaptive routing algorithm for the necklace hypercubes. The performance of necklace hypercubes using the proposed routing algorithm is then evaluated by means of simulation experiments. Experiments are realized under different working loads and for different network factors. Moreover, a comparison between the necklace hypercube and the well-known hypercube network is conducted. The comparison has been done considering...

Stretched hypercube has recently been introduced as an attractive alternative to the well-known hypercube. Previous research on this network topology has mainly focused on topological properties and VLSI aspects of this network In this paper, we propose some deterministic and adaptive routing algorithms for the stretched hypercubes. The performance of stretched hypercubes using the proposed routing algorithms is then evaluated by means of simulation experiments. Experiments are reahzed under different working loads and for different network actors. © 2008 IEEE  

Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare several metallurgic properties of Neoniti instrument with four other commonly used endodontic rotary files. Methods and Materials: Neoniti A1 (25/0.08), RaCe (25/0.06), Mtwo (25/0.06), Twisted file (25/0.06) and ProTaper Next X2 (25/0.06) were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) before and after heat treatment at 500°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was also performed on the specimens. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray energy-dispersive spectrometric (EDS) analyses were carried out on randomly selected fractured files. Results: In SEM tests, dimpled ruptures, characteristic of ductile fracture, were seen in... 

The Necklace Hypecube has been recently proposed as an attractive topology for multicomputers and was shown to have many desirable properties such as well-scalability and suitability for VLSI implementation. This paper introduces a parallel algorithm for computing an N-point Lagrange interpolation on a necklace hypercube multiprocessor. This algorithm consists of 3 phases: initialization, main and final. There is no computation in the initialization phase. The main phase consists of [E/2] steps (with E being the number of edges of the network), each consisting of 4 multiplications and 4 subtractions, and an additional step including 1 division and 1 multiplication. Communication in the main... 

Nowadays, manufacturing enterprises have been faced with a globalized competitive environment. In this fierce condition, Cloud Manufacturing paradigm emerged as a promising concept for competition. It provides effective solutions and tools for manufacturing enterprises to collaborate in globalized market. The revolution that Cloud Manufacturing has created is based on the redefinition of the classic methods to those which are appropriate for todays' modern and globalized manufacturing environments. In parallel with cloud-based revolution, the expansion of internet-based technologies has been started. These technologies previously have been applied in many fields and resulted in...
