Interconnection network performance is a key factor when constructing parallel computers. The choice of an interconnection network used in a parallel computer depends on a large number of performance factors which are very often applications dependent. We try in this paper to give the outlines of a performance evaluation and comparison methodology using what we think of as the most important parameters to be considered when solving such a problem. This methodology is applied on a new interconnection network called MCRB network and on Omega network.
