Virtual Tree Path Management for Battlefield Networks

چکیده
Virtual Trees are source-rooted trees in ATM networks in which VCs originating at the source but going to diierent destinations can share some of the bandwidth pre-allocated to the VT, thus providing an additional multiplexing advantage over Virtual Paths. Non-ATM protocols such as MIL-STD-188-220A can also take advantage of Virtual Trees because source concatenation provides a beneet very similar to ATM multiplexing. We describe the results of a simulation study which shows that Virtual Tree conngurations have almost 40% lower cost than corresponding Virtual Path conngurations. Applications of this work to dynamic routing schemes for battleeeld wireless networks are outlined.

Aggregating Multicast Demands on Virtual Path Trees
In ATM networks, Virtual Path Connections (VPCs) are not only a device for bundling Virtual Circuit Connections (VCCs), but they serve as an intermediate resource management layer wherein tradeoffs between cost, complexity, and efficiency are likely to be made on a slower time scale than connection holding times. In this paper we consider bundling multicast connections on VP trees. In particula...
متن کاملVirtual path layouts optimizing total hop count on ATM tree networks
This paper presents some algorithmic results concerning virtual path layouts for the one-to-many communication problem in ATM tree networks. The ATM network model is based on covering the network with a layout of virtual paths, under some constraints on the allowed load, namely, the number of paths that can share an edge. The quality measure used is the hop count, namely, the number of edges tr...
متن کاملA Novel Protection Guaranteed, Quality of Transmission Aware Routing and Wavelength Assignment Algorithm for All-optical Networks
Transparent All Optical Networks carry huge traffic and any link failure can cause the loss of gigabits of data; hence protection and its guarantee becomes necessary at the time of failure. Many protection schemes were presented in the literature, but none of them speaks about protection guarantee. Also, in all optical networks, due to absence of regeneration capabilities, the physical layer i...
