Routing on spatiotemporal networks without global knowledge

نویسنده

چکیده

The formulation of most shortest-path problems makes two simplifying assumptions: (1) the edge weights are deterministic, and (2) global knowledge of the network is available. I develop a decentralised routing algorithm providing en-route guidance for travellers without global knowledge on spatial networks with stochastic edge weights. The algorithm guides travellers using an estimation function that gauges cumulative arrival probability distributions based on the distance between nodes. The estimation function carries a notion of proximity between nodes and enables routing without global knowledge. I develop a new criterion to discriminate among these distributions and compare decentralised algorithms with centralised ones.

Broadcast Routing in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks: A Particle Swarm optimization Approach

While routing in multi-hop packet radio networks (static Ad-hoc wireless networks), it is crucial to minimize power consumption since nodes are powered by batteries of limited capacity and it is expensive to recharge the device. This paper studies the problem of broadcast routing in radio networks. Given a network with an identified source node, any broadcast routing is considered as a directed...

Decentralized Routing on Spatial Networks with Stochastic Edge Weights

We investigate algorithms to find short paths in spatial networks with stochastic edge weights. Our formulation of the problem of finding short paths differs from traditional formulations because we specifically do not make two of the usual simplifying assumptions: (1) we allow edge weights to be stochastic rather than deterministic and (2) we do not assume that global knowledge of a network is...

Navigability of Complex Networks

Routing information through networks is a universal phenomenon in both natural and manmade complex systems. When each node has full knowledge of the global network connectivity, finding short communication paths is merely a matter of distributed computation. However, in many real networks nodes communicate efficiently even without such global intelligence. Here we show that the peculiar structu...
