光波分复用(WDM)互连接是并行计算机系统克服"电子瓶颈”的可行方案,光纤传输的特性可使大容量、低时延、低误码率传输的并行计算机互连成为现实.探讨了并行计算机光WDM互连的一种结构,分析研究了其中的关键技术,并设计了一个实验系统.分析和实验表明采用光WDM互连可以实现超大容量的并行计算机系统.

WDM optical interconnection is a feasible method overcoming the problem of electronic bottlenecks for parallel computer system, the transmission properties of fiber make high capacity, low latency, low error rate parallel computer interconnection realistic. This paper discussed one kind of structures for parallel computer WDM optical interconnection, researched key technologies of it,and designed a test system. Analysis and test show that parallel computer system with ultrahigh capacity can be achieved by WDM optical interconnection.
