Abstract: A method for determining an interconnection topology between switches of a communication network. Such a method includes, for at least one given leaf switch, determining an effective path for the communication of data between the leaf switch and a root switch, determining the effective path including: determining at least one candidate path between the leaf switch and the root switch, the candidate path including at least one section between a first switch and a second switch; and for each candidate path, computing a metric based on at least one quantity representative of a ratio, determined for a corresponding section of the candidate path, between an effective requirement for the data throughput transiting via the section and a transport capacity of the connection of the section. The effective path is determined as being the candidate path with the extremal metric from the one or more candidate paths.
