摘要:
Link used variables are defined for links related to an interconnection fabric. The links used variables are representative of whether or not a link is used for handling flows between a plurality of hosts and devices. Constraints for links, and hop counts or port counts are also defined. An objective function is used by an integer programming solver to determine connections as a function of the definitions.

摘要:
Interconnection links between hosts and devices are optimized by using the operational parameters, for example, the bandwidth, of an edge/core switch network. In one embodiment, integer programming is used to create a mathematical model of the connectivity problem so as to optimize the minimum fraction of each host's or device's bandwidth demand routable from that host or devices to a core switch. In one embodiment, the mathematical model is solved by an integer problem solver.
摘要:
A system and method for improving a network. The system and method may include receiving a virtual topology including a list of application components defining an arbitrary network, resource requirements for the application components and communication requirements between each set of application components and receiving a network topology including a list of physical resources defining an arbitrary capacitated network, specifications for the physical resources, connections between the physical resources and a physical property for each connection. The system and method may also include creating decision variables and constraints to provide an objective function using the virtual topology and the network topology and assigning each application component to at least one physical resource according to the decision variables, the constraints, and the objective function.
