On the compatibility of the topologies of parallel tasks and computing systems

Abstract: Aspects of compatibility of topologies of parallel computing systems and tasks are investigated. The introduction of appropriate indexes based on the original topological model of parallel computations and on the nontraditional description of a graph by its projections is proposed and elucidated. On the example of hypercubic computing system (CS) and tasks with ring and star information topologies, we demonstrate determining the indexes and their use in a comparative analysis of the applicability of interconnect with a given topology for solving tasks with the same and different types of information topologies.
