Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks (2006)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A. (2006). Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks. International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking, 4, 152-160. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJHPCN.2006.010637

This paper examines the performance of broadcast communication on multicomputer networks. Unlike many existing works, this study considers a number of key factors/prosperities, including scalability, parallelism and routing scheme that could greatly...

On balancing network traffic in path-based multicast communication (2006)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. (2006). On balancing network traffic in path-based multicast communication. Future Generation Computer Systems, 22(7), 805-811. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.future.2006.02.009

This paper presents a new multicast path-based algorithm, referred to here as the Qualified Groups (QG for short), which can achieve a high degree of parallelism and low communication latency over a wide range of traffic loads in the mesh. The QG al... Read More about On balancing network traffic in path-based multicast communication.

A plane-based broadcast algorithm for multicomputer networks (2005)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. (2005). A plane-based broadcast algorithm for multicomputer networks. Journal of Systems Architecture, 51(10-11), 617-632. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sysarc.2005.01.003

Maximising the performance of parallel systems requires matching message-passing algorithms and application characteristics with a suitable underling interconnection network. Broadcast algorithms for wormhole-switched meshes have been widely reported... Read More about A plane-based broadcast algorithm for multicomputer networks.

Towards scalable collective communication for multicomputer interconnection networks (2004)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., El-Zayyat, K., Ababneh, I., & Al-Dobai, S. (2004). Towards scalable collective communication for multicomputer interconnection networks. Information Sciences, 163(4), 293-306. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2003.06.014

A considerable number of broadcast algorithms have been proposed for the mesh over the past decade. Nonetheless, most of these algorithms do not exhibit good scalability properties as the network size increases. As a consequence, most existing broadc...
