Routing optimization for network coding

This paper presents ongoing results on the combination of ad-hoc network routing algorithms along with network coding to optimize the throughputs of multi-flows. After the presentation of the principle of the multi-flows route co-determination, the paper describes an optimization in terms of delegated nodes to extend the topologies the optimization may be applied to. Results on specific and randomized determination of topologies and flows are presented to estimate the gains expected when using these optimizations. Results on laptop demonstration follow.
