Label propagation has proven to be a fast method for detecting communities in complex networks. Recent work has also improved the accuracy and stability of the basic algorithm, however, a general approach is still an open issue. We propose different label propagation algorithms that convey two unique strategies of community formation, namely, defensive preservation and offensive expansion of co...

An adaptive label propagation algorithm (ALPA) is proposed to detect and monitor communities in dynamic networks. Unlike the traditional methods by re-computing the whole community decomposition after each modification of the network, ALPA takes into account the information of historical communities and updates its solution according to the network modifications via a local label propagation pr...

Multi-Topology (MT) routing is supported in IP networks with the use of MT-aware IGPs. In order to provide MT routing within Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) networks, new extensions are required. This document describes the LDP protocol extensions required to support MT routing in an MPLS environment. Information about the current status of this document, ...

In this paper, we tackle the challenges of multilabel classification by developing a general conditional dependency network model. The proposed model is a cyclic directed graphical model, which provides an intuitive representation for the dependencies among multiple label variables, and a well integrated framework for efficient model training using binary classifiers and label predictions using...

Assigning several labels to digital data is becoming easier because we can perform it in a collaborative manner with Internet users. However, some suitable labels may be missed and may not be attached to the data leading to inaccuracies in classification. In this paper, we propose a novel graphbased multi-label classifier to support the multi-labeling task. The core process of our algorithm is ...

LSR(Label Switching Router)s in MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) networks map arriving IP flows into some labels on Layer 2 switching fabric and establish LSP(Label Switching Path)s. By using LSPs, LSRs can not only transmit IP packets fast with cut-through mechanism, but also solve traffic engineering issue to maximize resource utilization in the whole MPLS networks. So far, we have analyz...

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes additional managed objects and textual conventions for tunnels, identifiers, and Label Switching Routers to support Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) MIB modules for transport networks.

This memo defines an portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects to configure and/or monitor a Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switching Router (LSR).

Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is an alternative to integrate Internet Protocol (IP) routing and switching technologies because it provides end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS), guarantees traffic engineering, and support Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). However, MPLS must use path restoration schemes to guarantee the delivery of packets through a network. Considering that MPLS is a label...

The integration of WiMAX networks and multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) networks, called WiMPLS networks, is the trend for nomadic Internet access in the fourth generation (4G) wireless networks. The base station (BS) in such heterogeneous networks will play the role of bridge and router between the IEEE 802.16 subscriber stations (SSs) and MPLS networks. However, there is no such integrate...
