Routing Using Genetic Algorithm for Large Networks

Abstract

The performance and reliability of the Internet depend in large part on the operation of the underlying routing protocols. Today's IP routing protocols compute paths based on the network topology and configuration parameters, without regard to the current traffic load on the routers and links. This paper discusses routing optimization using Genetic Algorithm Then we study and analyze the problems of routing optimization in large networks. We will propose a detailed genetic algorithm in order to optimize routing tables and to enhance the performance of the routers.
