Abstract:

Fat trees are built around complete b-ary trees but have processing nodes only at the leaf level and may have different branch capacities in different levels. Here we study the communication capabilities of binary fat trees with respect to five major communication operations: broadcasting, multinode broadcasting, scattering, gathering and total exchange. We present and analyse optimal and nearly optimal algorithms for the five operations.
