Abstract
A hierarchical ring network comprising a plurality of nodes coupled in a base ring configuration such that each node is coupled to two adjacent nodes via base links, wherein the nodes are further coupled via a first level binary shortcut ring such that alternating nodes along the base ring act as first level nodes, and wherein each first level node is coupled to two nearest adjacent first level nodes via the first level binary shortcut ring.
