Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Tremendous advancements have been reported in the computer and communication industries due to the high demands of big data analysis. This led to the use of parallel and distributed processors to play a part. These parallel processors have to be connected to a large number of memory modules. The connection between these processors and memory modules must be highly reliable for efficient big data analysis. Multistage interconnection networks (MIN) provide data communication between processors and memory modules at efficient speed with reasonably high reliability. This chapter provides a detailed introduction to MINs with their evolution and characterization. Further in this chapter, the research trends among researchers about various classes of MINs have also been discussed.
