Time-Aware Congestion-Free Routing Reconfiguration
pdf
A general model is developed to study how network routing can be reconfigured quickly without incurring transient congestion. Assuming both initial and target configurations are congestion-free, it is known that transient congestion may still occur during the reconfiguration process if links contain a mix of traffic flows following old and new routing rules, resulting from variation of switch reaction time and propagation delay differences among paths. We consider these factors by explicitly incorporating timing uncertainty intervals into the model.
