Abstract :
A neural network is proposed for the channel routing problem. The neural network has been successfully applied to many combinatorial optimization problems. However, applying this technique to the channel routing problem has not been reported. Typical examples from the published literature are taken for experiments. The theoretic lower bounds are achieved in all examples
