We propose a dynamic packet routing strategy by using neural networks on scale-free networks. In this strategy, in order to determine the nodes to which the packets should be transmitted, we use path lengths to the destinations of the packets, and adjust the connection weights of the neural networks

โฆ Synopsis
We propose a new algorithm for controling packet routing by a neural network. First, we show that the conventional method for a packet routing control using a neural network is not so effective when it is applied to a network with irregular topology. To overcome this problem, we propose a modified method with stochastic effects. In the present paper, we evaluated our proposed method for irregular, randomized and scale-free networks. Further, we compared our method with the conventional method and another modified method. We show that our proposed method exhibits better performance than the conventional routing method.
Introducing some additional measures, we also analyze why the proposed method shows better performance. As a result, we confirmed that our proposed method skillfully decentralizes the packets in the computer network, and which improves the performance of the proposed method.

In a radio communications network, all of the nodes cannot communicate with each other directly. Then packets are transferred from a source node to a destination node through several nodes. Therefore, we need to schedule transfer timing at each node, and communications routes must be assigned to min
In a multicast packet switching system, multiple output ports can send out packets simultaneously by means of the packet copying function. In realizing such a switching system, the transmission pattern must be determined for successively arising transfer requests, so that the number of transmitted p
