Abstract

Topological routing is basically table free, and allows for very fast restoration and thus a high level of reliability in communication. It has already been satisfactorily proposed for some regular structures such as Grid or Honeycomb. An initial proposal has also been developed for the N2R structures. This paper proposes a modification of this previous algorithm, and in addition two other alternatives. The three options are systematically analyzed in terms of executing time and path distances, showing that trade-offs are needed in order to determine which algorithm is best for a given case. Also, the possible practical applications the methods could have, are discussed for different traffic scenarios.
