Multistage interconnection networks (MINs) have been widely adopted in communication networks especially in telecommunica- tion and multiprocessor environments. This paper aims to eval- uate the reliability performance of shuffle exchange network with an additional stage (SEN+), based on Monte Carlo method using computerized simulation. The evaluation is further improvised by deploying stratified sampling into the Monte Carlo method. SEN+ described in this paper is confined to multiprocessor environment based on identical switching elements used in interconnecting mul- tiple processors. It is shown that Monte Carlo method is capable of providing reliability evaluation for SEN+ system.
