This paper analyzes the fault tolerance characteristics of a range or rearrangeable {beta}-networks based on the concepts and the framework developed by S. Pakzad and S. Lakshmivarahan. These rearrangeable {beta}-networks include the Benes network, the Waksman network, the Joel network, and the serial network. In addition, this paper presents a comparative analysis of the aforementioned networks according to their hardware cost, performance, and degree of fault tolerance.
