Comprehensive Multipath Routing Solution for Congestion and Quality of Service in Communication Networks
Up to 11X the capacity of single-path routing while meeting the application’s QoS requirements
Internet traffic congestion and quality-of-service
An invention by a UC Santa Cruz researcher provides a solution to the problems of quality-of-service (QoS) and congestion. QoS guarantees network applications are provided by routing traffic over multiple paths between a given source and destination. This scalable new solution is called Dominant Set Multipath Routing (DMSR). The UCSC DSMR algorithm computes the best set of routes between each source and destination that provides a full range of performance available from the network. These set of paths are used to avoid congestion and to select flow request paths that meet the QoS standards. This performance range can run from the full range of performance available in a network, or to a set of specific targets selected to meet the needs of a set of applications. Simulation shows DSMR enables a record eleven (11) times the capacity of single-path routing.
