Routing Control Strategies for Multicast Networks

这是一项研究计划补助金，适用于之前有过独立联邦研究的女性。该奖项允许PI为高度并行的计算系统开发多播通信领域的研究计划。规划活动主要从以下几个方面对组播网络的路由控制策略进行了研究：1)设计了新的路由控制策略，可以更有效地减少组播连接的不均匀；2)开发了一个网络模拟器来模拟这些路由控制策略下的组播网络，并收集了大量的统计性能数据，以比较不同的控制策略，并在研究系统的后期阶段指导理论分析。

This is a Research Planning Grant for women who have nt had prior independent Federal research. The award is allowing the PI to develop a research program in the area of multicast communications for highly parallel computing systems. The planning activities are concentrated on the investigation of routing contronl strategies for multicast networks from the following aspects: 1) designing new routing control strategies which can more effectively reduce the non-uniformity of multicast connections; 2) developing a network simulator to simulate the multicast networks under these routing control strategies, and gather a large amount of statistical performance data to compare different control strategies and guide the theoretical analysis in the later phase of the research systems.
