  • Method of displaying 3D networks in 2D with out false crossings
    Patent number: 6043825
    Abstract: A method of displaying on a computer screen a two dimensional representation without any false crossings of a three dimensional interconnection network, where the three dimensional interconnection network consists of vertices defined by a series of perpendicular quadrilaterals; where the vertices of the quadrilaterals are mapped onto a two dimensional hyperbolic plane using geometric functions based on the vertex chosen as a point of origin and where the vertices in the two dimensional display are labelled along with any performance data.
