Title
Efficient OSPF weight allocation for intra-domain qos optimization
Abstract
This paper presents a traffic engineering framework able to optimize OSPF weight setting administrative procedures. Using the proposed framework, enhanced OSPF configurations are now provided to network administrators in or- der to effectively improve the QoS performance of the corresponding network do- main. The envisaged NP-hard optimization problem is faced resorting to Evolu- tionary Algorithms, which allocate OSPF weights guided by a bi-objective func- tion. The results presented in this work show that the proposed optimization tool clearly outperforms common weight setting heuristics and, even under unfavor- able scenarios, effective QoS improvement is achieved in the network domain.
