Abstract
This paper has proposed a suite of novel routing strategies, capacity-balanced alternate routing (C-BAR) and asynchronous criticality avoidance (ACA) protocol, which is aimed at spreading the traffic load homogeneously onto the networks with maximum degree of diversity. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can significantly improve the performance in blocking probability.
