Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for an enhanced reconfigurable interconnect network. The reconfigurable interconnect network can be used to switch between multiple different connection topologies for different sizes of subsets of processing nodes in a cluster. For example, for a given number of processing nodes to be used, different connection topologies can provide different levels of scalability, data transfer bandwidth among processing nodes, and latency for transfers among processing nodes. In some implementations, the connection topologies can assign connections for each of the data ports of the processing nodes used, to maximize utilization of the data ports and provide better performance.
