Abstract

This paper presents a traffic engineering framework able to optimize OSPF weight setting administrative procedures. Using the proposed framework, enhanced OSPF configurations are now provided to network administrators in order to effectively improve the QoS performance of the corresponding [...]

Abstract

Part 1: Traffic Engineering and Quality-of-Service; International audience; In current network infrastructures, several management tasks often require significant human intervention and can be of high complexity, having to consider several inputs to attain efficient configurations. [...]

Abstract

In this work, the main goal is to develop and evaluate a number of optimization algorithms in the task of improving Quality of Service levels in TCP/IP based networks, by configuring the routing weights of link-state protocols such as OSPF. Since this is a complex problem, some meta-heuristics [...]

Abstract

Traffic Engineering (TE) approaches are increasingly impor- tant in network management to allow an optimized configuration and resource allocation. In link-state routing, the task of setting appropriate weights to the links is both an important and a challenging optimization task. [...]

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel traffic engineering framework able to automatically provide near-optimal OSPF routing configurations for QoS constrained scenarios. Within this purpose, this work defines a mathematical model able to measure the QoS compliance in a class-based networking [...]

Abstract

Nowadays, city streets are populated not only by private vehicles but also by public transport, fleets of workers, and deliveries. Since each vehicle class has a maximum cargo capacity, we study in this article how authorities could improve the road traffic by endorsing long term [...]

Abstract

Part 6: Modelling and Optimization; International audience; This paper presents model and an algorithmic approach for the problem of generation optimal tourist route for electric vehicles (EVs). In the discussed problem a starting and a final point of a route are EV charging stations [...]

Abstract

GPS navigators are now present in most vehicles and smartphones. The usual goal of these navigators is to take the user in less time or distance to a destination. However, the global use of navigators in a given city could lead to traffic jams as they have a highly biased preference [...]

Abstract

Nowadays, the need to deal with limited resources together with the newly discovered awareness of the human over-exploitation of the environment, has made the optimization a cutting edge topic both in scientific [...]
