Abstract
A novel routing protocol for computer networks is designed by combining two routing protocols that adapt to changes in the network topology. The first routing protocol is expensive to operate but yields shortest-paths in the networks; therefore, it is best used when changes in the network topology are rare. The second routing protocol is not as costly to operate, but may yield longer paths; hence, it is best used when changes in the network topology are frequent. By combining these two protocols, the resulting protocol has a wide domain of applicability that does not depend on the frequency of changes in the network topology
