Characteristics and Key Aspects of Complex Systems in Multistage Interconnection Networks
Indra Gunawan · 2020
Multistage Interconnection Networks (MINs) have been used extensively to provide reliable and fast communication with effective cost. In this paper, four types of systems, characteristics and key aspects of complex systems, are discussed in the context of MINs. Shuffle-Exchange Networks (SEN), a common network topology in MINs, is analysed as a complex system. Different perspectives on how MINs possess all characteristics of complex systems are discussed and therefore it is managed as complex systems accordingly.
