Path selection in multi-layer networks

چکیده
Multi-layer networks are computer networks where the configuration of the network can be changed dynamically at multiple layers. However, in practice, technologies at different layers may be incompatible to each other, which necessitates a careful choice of a multi-layer network model. Not much work has been done on path selection in multi-layer networks. In this paper, we describe how to represent a multi-layer network and we provide algorithms for selecting paths in them. Throughout the paper we will use examples drawn from practical experience with routing in hybrid

Verifying functional requirements in multi-layer networks: a case for formal description of computer networks
Major outages and hacks in corporate networks show that the mounting complexity in computer networks has a direct impact on business. Although users have an intuitive understanding of how they would like the network to behave, network operators lack tools to match these implicit requirements against actual infrastructure. Verification is in the stone-age, with visual tracing of diagrams and dra...

Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) Routing is a routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and other wireless ad-hoc networks. The traditional AODV protocol cannot address to multi rate PHY communications. In this project, we analyze the relationship between data rate, corresponding transmission range and number of hops in AODV protocol and find the optimal data rate for AODV con...
