TLDR
The HARTS (hexagonal architecture for real-time systems) as mentioned in this paper is a distributed realtime architecture that supports fault-tolerant communication and I/O. HARTS consists of shared-memory multiprocessor nodes, interconnected by a wrapped hexagonal mesh.
Abstract
The design, implementation, and evaluation of a distributed real-time architecture called HARTS (hexagonal architecture for real-time systems) are discussed, emphasizing its support of time-constrained, fault-tolerant communications and I/O (input/output) requirements HARTS consists of shared-memory multiprocessor nodes, interconnected by a wrapped hexagonal mesh This architecture is intended to meet three main requirements of real-time computing: high performance, high reliability, and extensive I/O The high-level and low-level architecture is described The evaluation of HARTS, using modeling and simulation with actual parameters derived from its implementation, is reported Fault-tolerant routing, clock synchronization and the I/O architecture are examined >

Deadlock-free message routing in multiprocessor interconnection networks

TL;DR: A deadlock-free routing algorithm can be generated for arbitrary interconnection networks using the concept of virtual channels, which is used to develop deadlocked routing algorithms for k-ary n-cubes, for cube-connected cycles, and for shuffle-exchange networks.

Addressing, routing, and broadcasting in hexagonal mesh multiprocessors

TL;DR: An elegant, distributed routing scheme is developed for wrapped H-meshes so that each node in an H-mesh can compute shortest paths from itself to any other node with a straightforward algorithm of O(1) using the addresses of the source-destination pair only, independent of the network's size.
