Optimization of path protection | Kasper Bonne Rasmussen
| | Abstract | As connection oriented network solutions are used more and more for telecommunication, live television broadcast, streaming of sound and video, solving the timing issues in voice over IP (VoIP) and much more, it becomes increasingly important to protect such networks from link failures as they do not have the inherent protection of a packet switched network.
Protection from link failure can be costly since additional capacity is needed for backup paths. In this theses we will present a path protection method called Shared Backup Path Protection which has a capacity requirement very close to the lower bound. We will show how the model is implemented and test the final program on several well known networks. | | Type | Master's thesis [Academic thesis] | | Year | 2005 | | Publisher | Informatics and Mathematical Modelling, Technical University of Denmark, DTU | | Address | Richard Petersens Plads, Building 321, DK-2800 Kgs.
