Hi everyone, I have a few updated questions to ask. This is particularly aimed at Brad, but if anyone else knows, I would love some answers.
Why are there n+1 switches rather than just one in the crossbar definition? That is to ask, why couldn't this snippet: > ext_links = [ExtLink(ext_node=n, int_node=i) > for (i, n) in enumerate(nodes)] > xbar = len(nodes) # node ID for crossbar switch > int_links = [IntLink(node_a=i, node_b=xbar) for i in range(len(nodes))] > return Crossbar(ext_links=ext_links, int_links=int_links, > num_int_nodes=len(nodes)+1) Instead be implemented as so?: > ext_links = [ExtLink(ext_node=n, int_node=0) > for (i, n) in enumerate(nodes)] > int_links = [] > return Crossbar(ext_links=ext_links, int_links=int_links, > num_int_nodes=1) What is the status of garnet? I haven't seen much discussion of it on either mailing list. Is a Bus interconnect possible using either of the ruby network models? From what I can tell it's not. The gems-users mailing list seemed to agree. -Joseph
