PROJECT TITLE :

Routing to Multi-Instantiated Destinations: Principles, Practice, and Applications - 2018

ABSTRACT:

Prior solutions for routing to multi-instantiated destinations simply adapt existing routing algorithms designed for single-instance destinations, or depend upon flooding techniques. During this Project, a new approach for routing to multi-instantiated destinations is introduced, and the Multiple Instance Destination Routing (MIDR) framework is presented for example of the approach. MIDR uses only distance info to multi-instantiated destinations, while not routers having to establish overlays, apprehend the network topology, use complete paths to destination instances, or understand about all the instances of destinations. MIDR can be employed in name-primarily based content routing, IP unicast routing, multicasting, and anycasting; even in scenarios where the network topology is extremely dynamic such as within the case of MANETs. It is shown that MIDR provides multiple loop-free paths to destination instances. Extensive simulation-based experiments performed within the context of MANETs show that MIDR outperforms traditional approaches primarily based on unicast protocols which it scales to large networks.
