Design and analysis of multidimensional Manhattan street networks

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1993
A class of doubly connected two-dimensional Manhattan street networks (MSN) is extended to a multidimensional MSN (MMSN) by a simple edge division operation. The topology is defined by three simple link equations. An approximate expression for the diameter is obtained and a simple routing scheme for three-dimensional MMSN is introduced.
