Distributed, asynchronous algorithms for network control with contracted flow rates – a review
Andrzej Karbowski · Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology · 2006
The paper reviews current algorithms for distributed, asynchronous control of networks when the customer is guaranteed to get some predetermined (e.g., as a part of a service level agreement – SLA) values of flow. Two cases are considered – both with single and multiple commodity. It is assumed, that the flow cost functions are convex with special attention devoted to linear and strictly convex cases
