Abstract:Abstract. In this work we address the problem of anycast flow assignment. Anycast is a one-to-one-of-many delivery technique that allows a client to choose a content server of a set of replicated servers. We formulate an optimization problem of anycast flows assignment in a connection-oriented network, which is 0/1 and NP-complete. Thus, we propose a new effective heuristic algorithm based on Lagrangean relaxation technique. To our best survey, this is the first study that applies the Lagrangean relaxation to … Show more
