With increasingly diverse QOS requirements, it is impractical to continue to rely on
conventional routing paradigms that emphasize the search for an optimal path based on a …

The topological design of distributed packet switched networks consists of finding a topology
that minimizes the communication costs by taking into account a certain number of …

This paper presents an application of the simulated annealing heuristic to the problem of
designing computer communication networks. This problem essentially consists in finding …

Network users and designers are frequently concerned about the fairness of service
achieved either in local networking or in internetworking. However, because of its subjective …

(57) ABSTRACT A polling period controlling apparatus capable of polling with a period
traceable temporal variations of management information values of a managed unit is …

The Internet protocol, based on packet switching technique, provides an efficient sharing of
network bandwidth. However, fairness is always an important issue when resources are …

Network users and designers are frequently concerned about the fairness of service
achieved either in the local network or in internetworking. The authors compile the basic …

This paper proposes a heuristic approach based on Hopfield model of neural networks to
solve the problem of routing which constitutes one of the key aspects of the topological …

As the speed and number of LANs continue to increase higher and higher demand is placed
on wide area networks. To support the tremendous traffic and to avoid link congestion, such …

This paper presents a machine learning approach to the topological optimization of
computer networks. Traditionally formulated as an integer program, this problem is well …
