On the influence of selection function on the performance of fat-trees under hot-spot traffic

TL;DR: This paper proposes a new selection function SAOP, which is based on the stage and the source node address and argues that the SAOP is more suitable for hot-spot traffic than other selection functions.

Global Round Robin: Efficient Routing With Cut-Through Switching in Fat-Tree Data Center Networks

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel framework for designing per-packet load-balanced routing algorithms in fat tree called global round robin (GRR) is proposed and it is proved that both GRR and IGRR can guarantee 100% throughput under a wide class of traffic.

A Methodology for Easing the Congestion in Fat-trees Using Traffic Pattern Detection

TL;DR: A management mechanism for fat-trees for selecting a certain selection function for certain traffic pattern that is proved to give better performance under the detected traffic pattern is proposed and used to decrease congestion in the network.

A Proof for the Queuing Formula: L = λW

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if the three means are finite and the corresponding stochastic processes strictly stationary, and if the arrival process is metrically transitive with nonzero mean, then L = λW.

Fat-trees: universal networks for hardware-efficient supercomputing

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a new class of universal routing networks, called fat-trees, which might be used to interconnect the processors of a general-purpose parallel supercomputer, and proved that a fat-tree of a given size is nearly the best routing network of that size.
