  • A Genetic Algorithm Based Routing Optimization Tool

    (For source code see this updated post.)

    Introduction
    This post describes the use of a tool written in C++ that could be used to assist a network designer in establishing an optimal set of virtual paths in ATM networks.

    In broadband ATM networks, the cellD based switching capacity is frequently built over digital cross connect system (DCS) networks.  The DCS network can be considered the backbone for connecting ATM switches and for reconfiguration.  As a consequence, the problem confronted by the system designer is how to configure the optimal topology and capacities within the DCS network.
