改进遗传算法在QoS组播路由选择中的研究

QoS组播路由的选择问题本质是从源节点至目的节点间找到满足QoS要求的传输路径,尽管现在有许多文献利用遗传算法对组播路由问题做了研究,但其组播路由费用都比较大,执行时间过长,并且编码难度都比较大,优化效率低。针对这些问题,文中提出了一种改进的遗传算法,该算法综合考虑了带宽约束、时延约束、时延抖动约束、丢包率约束以及路由费用等度量指标,在传统遗传算法的基础上,设计了一种基于应用层业务的自适度函数,改进了染色体编码方式,并且设计了自适应交叉函数与自适应变异函数等多种优化函数。通过仿真结果表明,该改进的遗传算法很大程度上降低了QoS组播路由的费用和执行时间,并且能快速地找到最优QoS组播路径。

A new delay‐constrained algorithm for multicast routing tree construction

New multimedia applications provide guaranteed end‐to‐end quality of service (QoS) and have stringent constraints on delay, delay‐jitter, bandwidth, cost, etc. The main task of QoS routing is to find a route in the network, with sufficient resources to satisfy the constraints. Most multicast routing algorithms are not fast enough for large‐scale networks and where the source node uses global cost information to construct a multicast tree. We propose a fast and simple heuristic algorithm (EPDT) for delay‐constrained routing problem for multicast tree construction. This algorithm uses a greedy strategy based on shortest‐path and minimal spanning trees. It combines the minimum cost and the minimum radius objectives by combining respectively optimal Prim's and Dijkstra's algorithms. It biases routes through destinations. Besides, it uses cost information only from neighbouring nodes as it proceeds, which makes it more practical, from an implementation point of view. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

An iterative algorithm for delay-constrained minimum-costmulticasting

The bounded shortest multicast algorithm (BSMA) is presented for constructing minimum-cost multicast trees with delay constraints. The BSMA can handle asymmetric link characteristics and variable delay bounds on destinations, specified as real values, and minimizes the total cost of a multicast routing tree. Instead of the single-pass tree construction approach used in most previous heuristics, the new algorithm is based on a feasible-search optimization strategy that starts with the minimum-delay multicast tree and monotonically decreases the cost by iterative improvement of the delay-bounded multicast tree. The BSMA's expected time complexity is analyzed, and simulation results are provided showing that BSMA can achieve near-optimal cost reduction with fast execution     

Multi-constraints QoS routing optimization based on improved immune clonal shuffled frog leaping algorithm

Aiming at the multi-constraint routing problem,a mathematical model was designed,and an improved immune clonal shuffled frog leaping algorithm (IICSFLA) was proposed,which combined immune operator with traditional SFLA.Under the constraints of bandwidth,delay,packet loss rate,delay jitter and energy cost,total energy cost from the source node to the terminal node was computed.The proposed algorithm was used to find an optimal route with minimum energy cost.In the simulation,the performance of IICSFLA with adaptive genetic algorithm and adaptive ant colony optimization algorithm was compared.Experimental results show that IICSFLA solves the problem of multi-constraints QoS unicast routing optimization.The proposed algorithm avoids local optimum and effectively reduces energy loss of data on the transmission path in comparison with adaptive genetic algorithm and adaptive ant colony optimization algorithm.     

Multicast wavelength assignment with sparse wavelength converters to maximize the network capacity using ILP formulation in WDM mesh networks

In general, multicast routing and wavelength assignment (MC-RWA) can be subdivided in routing and wavelength assignment issues in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) mesh networks. Previous studies on WDM multicast have mainly focused on WDM multicast routing. The multicast wavelength assignment problem is studied in this paper. A unicast routing path can be established by a lightpath in an all-optical network. However, in the multicasting case, a multicast routing tree can be established by a single light-tree or several lightpaths, or a combination of several light-trees and lightpaths. We propose a wavelength assignment algorithm for finding an optimal combination of lightpaths and light-trees to construct a newly required multicast session. First of all, two cost functions are given to evaluate the establishing cost for each feasible wavelength, and then find a set of wavelengths that covers all destinations with the minimal cost using Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation. We focus on maximizing the total number of users served in a multicast session and the network capacity. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve system resource utilization and reduce the blocking probability compared with the First-Fit algorithm.This research was partially supported by the Grant of National Science Council, R.O.C. (NSC 94-2745-E-155-007-URD).

An integrated routing and admission control mechanism for real‐time multicast connection establishment

There are two major difficulties in real‐time multicast connection setup. One is the design of an efficient distributed routing algorithm which optimizes the network cost of routing trees under the real‐time constraints. The other is the integration of routing with admission control into one single phase of operations. This paper presents a real‐time multicast connection setup mechanism, which integrates multicast routing with real‐time admission control. The proposed mechanism performs the real‐time admission tests on a cost optimal tree (COT) and a shortest path tree (SPT) in parallel, aiming at optimizing network cost of the routing tree under real‐time constraints. It has the following important features: (1) it is fully distributed; (2) it achieves sub‐optimal network cost of routing trees; (3) it takes less time and less network messages for a connection setup.
