  • Network interconnections
    Patent number: 7167453
    Abstract: A partially interconnected network has a plurality of Allocated Nodes, each allocated to one of a number of AREAs, and further has a plurality of Star Nodes (STARs), and also has point-to-point interconnections between the Allocated Nodes and the STARs. The number of AREAs with Allocated Nodes connected to an individual STAR forms the number of ROUTEs from an individual STAR. The Allocated Nodes of a first of the AREAs are connected to a set comprising some, but not all, of the STARs. Further of the AREAs are similarly interconnected to further sets each comprising STARs. There is at least one connection choice between any two Allocated Nodes in different AREAs and where a connection route is two point-to-point interconnections connected in series by a STAR.
