A novel network resource allocation algorithm with load balance guarantees
Min Sheng · Journal of Xidian University · 2005
An efficiently used network can avoid the early emergence of network bottleneck and serve more users with QoS guarantees.In this paper,a path level resource allocation algorithm,P-ERA,is proposed first on the basis of balanced resource allocation.Based on P-ERA and with several network factors,such as link topology position and traffic injected at different source nodes,in mind,a network level resource allocation algorithm,N-ERA,is also developed,which features quantitative path selection and appropriate bandwidth allocation on constituent links along a path,the simulation results indicate that it can make full use of network resources while guaranteeing admitted services.
