Fault-Tolerant routing based on safety path vectors in hypercube system. Journal of Software, 2004,15(5):783~790. /1000-9825/15/783.htm Abstract: Hypercube multicomputers system has good performances in parallel and distributed computation. With the increasing size of a multicomputers network system, the fault possibility of computers and their links increases. As a result, it becomes very important to seek for better fault-tolerant routing strategies for realizing more effective fault-tolerant routing when lots of faults occur in the multicomputers system. Many significant researches have been done on the fault-tolerant routing design for the hypercube multicomputers system. An innovative fault-tolerant routing algorithm is proposed, in which each node uses a safety path vector (SPV) to record the optimal paths to the other nodes. The safety path vector is an approximate measure of the number and distribution of the faults in the neighborhood and can be setup or updated through the n−1 rounds of information exchanges among neighboring nodes by consuming only n bits storage space. Compared with previous fault-tolerant routing algorithms such as the safety vectors (SVs), extend
