Routing optimization in packet switching communication networks

From MaRDI portal





For routing assignments a special model and an optimization algorithm are proposed. The efficiency of the routing assignments is evaluated by the average value of the total cost of delays for all packets in the network. It is the objective function. The main idea is that traffic, which is transmitted from the source node to the destination node, can be split between two or more logical paths. The minimum of the objective function can be found by varying the traffic on every path and simultaneously from all the source nodes to the destination nodes. If this approach is applied, then the objective function is nonseparable and nonlinear. Because its shape is unknown in advance, an adaptive nonlinear optimization algorithm is proposed. For evaluating its efficiency a special set of test functions has been used.
