Multi-radio multi-channel Wireless Mesh Network requires an effective management policy to control the assignment of channels to each radio. We concentrated our investigation on modeling method and solution to find a dynamic channel assignment scheme that is adapted to change of network traffic. Multi-path routing scheme was chosen to overwhelm the unreliability of wireless link. For a particular traffic state, our optimization model found a specific traffic distribution over multi-path and a channel assignment scheme that maximizes the overall network throughput. We developed a simple heuristic method for channel assignment by gradually removing clique load to obtain higher throughput. We also presented numerical examples and discussion of our models in comparison with existing research.

The problem of bandwidth allocation and routing in VP based ATM networks was studied. A priori reservation of resources for VP's reduces the statistical multiplexing gain, resulting in increased Call Blocking Probability (CBP). The focus of this study is on how to reduce CBP by the efficient bandwidth allocation and routing algorithms. Equivalent capacity concept was used to calculate the required bandwidth by the call. and the effect of traffic dispersion was explored to achieve more statistical gain. A cost-effective traffic dispersion routing algorithm, CED, was designed. The algorithm finds the optimal number of dispersion paths for a call, where the gain balances the dispersion cost. Simulation study showed that CED could significantly reduce the CBP.

Recently, one of the problems with the Internet is the issue of scalability. To this end, locator/identifier separation protocol (LISP), which separates end-system identifiers and routing locators, has been proposed as a solution. In the LISP deployed network, the ingress and egress nodes of inter-AS traffic is determined by edge router selection (ERS) and endpoint identifier-routing locator mapping assignment (ERMA). In this paper, joint optimizations of ERS and ERMA for stub networks with and without predetermined link weights are studied and the mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulations for the problems are given. To make the problem with optimizable link weights tractable, a revised local search algorithm is also proposed. Simulation results show that joint optimization of ERS and ERMA enables better network performance.

Multicast communication can effectively reduce network resources consumption in contrast with unicast. With the advent of SDN, current researches on multicast traffic are mainly conducted in the SDN scenario, thus to mitigate the problems of IP multicast such as the unavoidable difficulty in traffic engineering and high security risk. However, migration to SDN cannot be achieved in one step, hybrid SDN emerges as a transitional networking form for ISP network. In hybrid SDN, for acquiring similar TE and security performance as in SDN multicast, we redirect every multicast traffic to an appropriate SDN node before reaching the destinations of the multicast group, thus to build up a core-based multicast tree substantially which is first introduced in CBT. Based on the core SDN node, it is possible to realize dynamic control over the routing paths to benefit traffic engineering (TE), while multicast traffic manageability can also be obtained, e.g., access control and middlebox-supported network services. On top of that, multiple core-based multicast trees are constructed for each multicast group by fully taking advantage of the routing flexibility of SDN nodes, in order to further enhance the TE performance. The multicast routing and splitting (MRS) algorithm is proposed whereby we jointly and efficiently determine an appropriate core SDN node for each group, as well as optimizing the traffic splitting fractions for the corresponding multiple core-based trees to minimize the maximum link utilization. We conduct simulations with different SDN deployment rate in real network topologies. The results indicate that, when 40% of the SDN switches are deployed in HSDN as well as calculating 2 trees for each group, HSDN multicast adopting MRS algorithm can obtain a comparable TE performance to SDN multicast.

단일 최단경로 라우팅 알고리즘은 흔히 최대 링크 로드를 최소화하는 인터넷 트래픽 엔지니어링에 적합하지 않다고 알려져있다. 또한 여러 개의 최단경로들을 동시에 사용하여 트래픽을 나누어서 전송하는 방법은 전체 트래픽 디맨드를 고려하지 않기 때문에 최대링크로드를 반드시 최소화시키지는 못한다. 하지만, 여러 개의 최단경로들이 동일 송수신 노드 사이에 존재하면, 기존 라우팅 프로토콜에 변화를 주지 않고도 최대 링크 로드를 최소화시킬 수 있는 최단경로들의 집합을 선택하여 이용할 수 있다. 이러한 최단 경로들을 계산할 때에는 동일 목적지에 대해서는 송신자에 관계없이 동일한 넥스트-홉을 유지해야한다. 본 논문에서는 트래픽 엔지니어링을 위한 최단 경로 라우팅 알고리즘의 최적해를 구할 수 있는 ILP 문제를 제시하고, 근사해를 구하기 위한 휴리스틱 알고리즘을 제안하고 성능을 평가하였다.

본 논문에서는 파장 분할 다중화(WDM)망에서 중앙 집중식 제어 방식을 연구해 왔던 기존의 논문과는 달리 분산 제어 방식으로 동작하는 휴리스틱 파장 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안한다. 동적 트래픽 요구에 적절히 대응하기 위해 파장의 일부를 사용하여 필요한 연결성을 가지는 불완전 가상 망 형상을 효율적으로 설계하는 방식을 제안한다. 이러한 연결성은 하나 이상의 광경로를 경유하여 임의의 시작 노드에서 임의의 목적 노드로 데이타 전송을 가능하게 한다. 또한 불완전 가상망 형상을 바탕으로 동적 트래픽 요구에 적응하는 고속 분산 파장 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안하고 파장의 평균 사용률에 대한 일반적인 임계 값을 분석한다. 끝으로, NSFNET[1]과 동적 핫-스팟(hot-spot) 트래픽 모델을 사용하는 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 알고리즘의 성능이 고정된 최단 경로 파장 라우팅 알고리즘보다 더 좋음을 보이고, 블록킹(blocking) 성능, 제어 트래픽 부하, 그리고 계산상의 복잡도의 관점에서 분산 파장 분할 다중화 망을 위한 효율적인 파장 라우팅 알고리즘임을 보인다.

The Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is a multi-hop wireless network consisting of mesh routers and clients, where the mesh routers have minimal mobility and form the backbone. The WMN is primarily designed to access outer network to mesh clients through backhaul gateways. As traffic converges on the gateways, traffic hotspots are likely to form in the neighborhood of the gateways. In this paper, we propose Congestion Aware Multi-path Routing (CAMR) protocol to tackle this problem. Upon congestion, CAMR divides the clients under a mesh STA into two groups and returns a different path for each group. The CAMR protocol triggers multi-path routing in such a manner that the packet reordering problem is avoided. Through simulations, we show that CAMR improves the performance of the WMN in terms of throughput, delay and packet drop ratio.

With the rapid development of urban traffic system and fast increasing of vehicle numbers, the traditional centralized ways to generate the source-destination shortest path in terms of travel time(the optimal path) encounter several problems, such as high server pressure, low query efficiency, roads state without in-time updating. With the widespread use of smart cameras in the urban traffic and surveillance system, this paper maps the optimal path finding problem in the dynamic road network to the shortest routing problem in the smart camera networks. The proposed distributed optimal path generation algorithm employs the delay routing and caching mechanism. Real-time route update is also presented to adapt to the dynamic road network. The test result shows that this algorithm has advantages in both query time and query packet numbers.

The recent interest in sensor networks has led to a number of routing schemes that use the limited resources available at sensor nodes more efficiently. These schemes typically try to find the minimum energy path to optimize energy usage at a node. Some schemes, however, are prone to unbalance of the traffic and energy. To solve this problem, we propose a novel solution: a gradient-field approach which takes account of the minimum cost data delivery, energy consumption balancing, and traffic equalization. We also modify the backoff-based cost field setup algorithm to establish our gradient-field based sensor network and give the algorithm. Simulation results show that the overhead of routing establishment obtained by our algorithm is much less than the one obtained by Flooding. What's more, our approach guarantees the basic Quality of Service (QoS) without extra spending.

This paper deals with an offline routing problem, which can be used as an explicit routing procedure in MPLS(Multiprotocol Label Switching) network, for traffic engineering. This problem is formulated as an MIP(Mixed Integer Programming) with the objective function which is to minimize the sum of the maximum link utilization for load balancing (link utilization) and the routing cost. Constraints arc composed of link capacity restriction and demand requirement that has origin-destination pair, bandwidth requirement and hop restriction. The problem is proved to be NP-hard so that the Lagrangean relaxation method is applied to propose a Lagrangean heuristic. To test the effectiveness & efficiency of the proposed algorithm, computational experiments are performed with numerical instances. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm solves the problem within a reasonable time.
