We have a 16 transputer system and one C004 link switch. As the C004 has
only 32 in/outputs, the other 32 links must be put into a fixed
configuration. Any suggestion about what would be a good one? We want to be
able to make the usual networks: grid, ring, torus, tree, 4d cube etc.
Anyway much less than 32! different ones. 

We don't find it very useful to have more than one connection between two
transputers, or to connect a transputer to itself. The numbering of the
links is also not important. And all connections just bidirectional.
