Utilizing the dormant path diversity through multipath routing in the Internet to reach end
users-thereby fulfilling their QoS requirements-is rather logical. While offering better …

The Internet is inherently a multipath network: For an underlying network with only a single
path, connecting various nodes would have been debilitatingly fragile. Unfortunately …

Quality of Service Routing is at present an active and remarkable research area, since most
emerging network services require specialized Quality of Service (QoS) functionalities that …

Due to their importance to society, communication networks should be built and operated to
withstand failures. However, cost considerations make network providers less inclined to …

Network survivability—the ability to maintain operation when one or a few network
components fail—is indispensable for present‐day networks. In this paper, we characterize …

Network survivability endeavors to ensure the uninterrupted provisioning of services by the
network operators in case of a disaster event. Studies and news reports show that network …

Networks are prevalent in our daily lives. Our body consists of networks of neurons
interconnected by synapses. Our transportation networks enable us to commute between …

Edge and vertex connectivity are fundamental concepts in graph theory. While they have
been thoroughly studied in the case of undirected graphs, surprisingly, not much has been …

Motivated by conversations with operators and by possibilities to unlock future Internet-
based applications, we study how to enable Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to reliably offer …

We consider a circuit-switched multiservice network with non-hierarchical alternative routing
and trunk reservation. Based on the fundamental concept of overflow priority classification …
