Abstract
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system for network communication includes an M dimensional grid of node groups, each node group including N nodes, wherein M is greater than or equal to one and N is greater than one and each node comprises a router and intra-group links directly connecting each node in each node group to every other node in the node group. In addition, the system includes inter-group links directly connecting each node in each node group to a node in each neighboring node group in the M dimensional grid.
