  2. Tree network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_network

    A tree topology, or star-bus topology, is a hybrid network topology in which star networks are interconnected via bus networks. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Tree networks are hierarchical, and each node can have an arbitrary number of child nodes.

  3. Fat tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_tree

    The architecture uses commodity switches that are cheaper and more power-efficient than high-end modular data center switches. This topology is actually a special instance of a Clos network, rather than a fat-tree as described above. That is because the edges near the root are emulated by many links to separate parents instead of a single high ...

  4. Data center network architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_center_network...

    The fat tree DCN architecture reduces the oversubscription and cross section bandwidth problem faced by the legacy three-tier DCN architecture. Fat tree DCN employs commodity network switches based architecture using Clos topology. [3] The network elements in fat tree topology also follows hierarchical organization of network switches in access ...

  5. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    A tree topology (a.k.a. hierarchical topology) can be viewed as a collection of star networks arranged in a hierarchy. This tree structure has individual peripheral nodes (e.g. leaves) which are required to transmit to and receive from one other node only and are not required to act as repeaters or regenerators. Unlike the star network, the ...

  6. Multistage interconnection networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multistage_interconnection...

    Tree Tree network This topology involves connection of the nodes to form a tree. The nodes are connected to form clusters and the clusters are in-turn connected to form the tree. This methodology causes increased complexity in the network. Hypercube 4*4 Hypercube This topology consists of connections of the nodes to form cubes. The nodes are ...

  7. Spanning Tree Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanning_Tree_Protocol

    The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a network protocol that builds a loop-free logical topology for Ethernet networks. The basic function of STP is to prevent bridge loops and the broadcast radiation that results from them. Spanning tree also allows a network design to include backup links providing fault tolerance if an active link fails.

  8. Hypertree network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertree_network

    A hypertree network is a network topology that shares some traits with the binary tree network. [1] It is a variation of the fat tree architecture. [2]A hypertree of degree k depth d may be visualized as a 3-dimensional object whose front view is the top-down complete k-ary tree of depth d and the side view is the bottom-up complete binary tree of depth d.

  9. Bisection bandwidth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection_bandwidth

    For ring topology with n nodes two links should be broken to bisect the network, so bisection bandwidth becomes bandwidth of two links. Bisection of a ring network. For tree topology with n nodes can be bisected at the root by breaking one link, so bisection bandwidth is one link bandwidth. Bisection of a tree network
