Compare the resiliency to failure of n-cube to a fully- connected interconnection network. Plot a comparison of reliability as a function of the added number of links for the two topologies.

Refer to Figure 7.7b that shows an n-cube interconnect topology of order 3 that interconnects 8 nodes. One attractive feature of an n-cube interconnection network topology is its ability to sustain broken links and still provide connectivity.
