Valid inequalities for a shortest-path routing optimization problem
(2007) International Network Optimization Conference INOC 2007- Abstract
- In autonomous systems of the Internet packets are routed on shortest paths to their destinations, for example
according to the ECMP principle. The problem of finding a feasible traffic routing configuration realized
on paths which can be generated by a system of weights assigned to IP links is NP-hard. This problem
can be formulated as a mixed-integer program and attempted with a branch-and-cut algorithm if effective
cuts (valid inequalities) can be derived. In this paper we present exact and approximate LP- and MIPbased
methods for generating valid inequalities that separate fractional solutions of the basic problem.
Besides, a family of complementary valid inequalities, generated with... (More) - In autonomous systems of the Internet packets are routed on shortest paths to their destinations, for example

methods for generating valid inequalities that separate fractional solutions of the basic problem.
Besides, a family of complementary valid inequalities, generated with a shortest-path algorithm, related
to combinatorial properties of feasible traffic routes is introduced to speed up the cut generation process.
Results of a numerical study illustrating computational issues are discussed. (Less)
