Bandwidth

The bandwidth field defines the bandwidth of each (uni-directional) link in GB/s.

Note

The simulator deems 1 GB as 2^30 B and 1 s as 10^9 ns.

Example network bandwidth configuration

In the first example above, we have a bi-directional link, where each uni-directional link bandwidth is 50 GB/s. This can be captured in the .yml representation as below.

bandwidth: [ 50.0 ]  # GB/s

In the second example, a 2D topology is shown. The 1st dim has a bi-directional link whose uni-directional bandwidth is 120 GB/s. Likely, the 2nd dim leverages bi-directional links, whose uni-directional link bandwidth is 20 GB/s. This can be captured in the .yml format as below:

bandwidth: [ 120.0, 20.0 ]  # GB/s
