Abstract
Information between two nodes in a network is sent based on the network topology, the structure of links connecting pairs of nodes of a network. The task of topology control is to choose a connecting subset from all possible links such that the overall network performance is good. For instance, a goal of topology control is to reduce the number of links to make routing on the topology faster and easier.
