Optimal results for Anycast-Protecting p-Cycles problem
Adam Smutnicki, Krzysztof M. Walkowiak · 2010
p-Cycles present a very interesting approach to building survivable networks. They have been widely studied for unicast and recently for multicast traffic. For anycast traffic almost no research have been done. We will discuss a new p-cycles version, called Anycast-Protecting p-Cycles, introduced in our previous paper. We provide detailed description of some new properties, ILP models, results and extended analysis with comparison to classical p-cycle span protection approach. We will show that usage of Anycast-Protecting p-Cycles can be very beneficial.
