Abstract :
The concept of a cognitive packet network (CPN) is modified in the light of advances in intelligent routing algorithms. To do so, cognitive and acknowledgement packets are used to update neural networks at each router with respect to quality of service information. Data is carried by a third class of packets, thus the density of data packets is higher than in the original CPN framework. The system is demonstrated on a LAN using standard TCP/IP protocols.
