Abstract
As multiprocessor systems continue to grow in scale, their underlying interconnection networks face increasingly challenging issues to characterize reliability and fault tolerance. Matroidal connectivity and conditional matroidal connectivity are two novel metrics that enhance network reliability by dividing the edge set into several parts and flexibly adjusting the number of faulty edges in each dimension to meet practical requirements. The n-dimensional varietal hypercube is vertex-transitive and edge-transitive, and it is a variant of the traditional hypercube. In this paper, we first determine the matroidal connectivity and conditional matroidal connectivity of . Then we conduct a comparative analysis of 's matroidal connectivity with some kinds of conditional connectivities, namely g-extra edge connectivity, g-component edge connectivity, and g-super edge connectivity. Our results show that matroidal connectivity outperforms the conditional edge connectivities above, underscoring its efficiency in bolstering the fault tolerance of interconnection networks under specific conditions.
期刊介绍:
Theoretical Computer Science is mathematical and abstract in spirit, but it derives its motivation from practical and everyday computation. Its aim is to understand the nature of computation and, as a consequence of this understanding, provide more efficient methodologies. All papers introducing or studying mathematical, logic and formal concepts and methods are welcome, provided that their motivation is clearly drawn from the field of computing.
