Parallel Architectures
Published in Pranabananda Chakraborty, Computer Organisation and Architecture, 2020
An Interconnection Network is essentially a pathway using which the resources can establish communications between themselves. It allows information to flow either between any pair of modules in the system or by broadcasting information from one module to many other modules. Various types of such networks exist, and can also be designed in numerous ways. The selection of a particular network from a spectrum of choices is determined on the basis of its various parameters; such as, cost, topology, bandwidth, latency, switching method, timing protocol, control strategy, effective throughput, scalability, hardware complexity, and above all, ease of implementation.

Modules in a digital system are usually interconnected in some carefully architected, consistent manner. If point-to-point interconnections are used, they are used throughout the system, or in a subsystem. In the same manner, buses are not broken arbitrarily to insert point-to-point connections or rings. For this reason, digital system design programs usually assume an interconnection style and determine the system performance relative to that style. The most common interconnection styles are bus, point-to-point, and ring.

A major challenge is the increasing interconnection that may expose safety-critical systems to security threats. Cars are no longer physically isolated machines controlled mechanically and locally (Macher et al, 2017). They have become computers with various electronic control units (ECU) and hackers may take control over brakes, engine, the steering wheel, radio, and lights. Recently, it was discovered that one million cars could be hacked simultaneously (Kibar, 2017; Slovik, 2017).
Optimal sensor spacing in IoT network based on quantum computing technology

Machine-to-machine communication will interconnect the telemetry and the sensors through different cellular technologies. The emerging Internet of Things (IoT) connects several machine-to-machine technologies to solve a new problem [1]. The Internet and things are interconnected based on networking, communication, sensors, information processing, etc. [2]. This type of interconnection enables the things or objects associated with the network to interact among themselves and exchange information. Several researchers also estimate that the objects utilising the network connection in IoT will reach billions within a few years [3,4]. The IoT network includes several applications, such as healthcare, automotive transportation industries, etc. [5].
