Abstract

Parallel computing has contributed significantly to Defence applications. This field has helped in the development of dedicated hardware/software for ballistic missile defence system. In parallel computers, interprocessors communication mechanism strongly influences overall performance of the system. If a parallel computer is composed of n processors and each processor has a performance p, then the maximum potential of the system is np. The present review concentrates on interprocessor communication. Crossbar and delta network is discussed in detail. Cogent XTM - a better solution over crossbar network is also discussed.
