本文研究了互连网络的定量评估方法。在传统的评估方法中，性能曲线是通过一系列的仿真运行来绘制的，而网络方法则是通过比较性能曲线的形状来讨论的。我们提出了斜坡加载方法，该方法不需要重复的模拟运行，并且可以产生连续的性能曲线。在连续曲线的基础上，给出了临界荷载比的形式定义。此外，我们还引入了一个特征量来表示吞吐量和平均时延，并提出了一种新的度量方法--网络性能度量。通过详细的评价和应用实例，验证了所提出的评价方法的有效性。
This paper addresses the quantitative evaluation methodology of interconnection networks. In the conventional evaluation method, performance curves are drawn by a series of simulation runs, and network methods are discussed by comparing the shape of performance curves. We present the Ramp Load Method that does not require repetitive simulation runs and produces continuous performance curves. Based on the continuous curves, we give a formal definition of critical load ratio. Furthermore, we introduce a feature quantity to represent both throughput and average latency, and propose a new measure called Network Performance Measure. Through detailed evaluation and some application examples, the effectiveness of the proposed evaluation methodology is confirmed.
