  • Abstract
    This paper describes a technique to reduce the computational complexity of max-flow routing, based on a hierarchical decomposition of the network. The computational complexity of this hierarchical max-flow routing is comparable to that of Dijkstra´s and Bellman-Ford´s algorithms. It is shown that in many of today´s networks, this hierarchical approach provides nearly the same performance as flat (i.e., non-hierarchical) routing, with significantly less computation
