Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for generating synthetic representations of a network and performing path computations using the synthetic representations. A model of the network is created including different representations for different regions of the network based on the network mesh patterns (e.g., a sparse mesh representation, a Clos mesh representation, and a flat mesh representation). The generated representations include synthetic, aggregated nodes and/or links in the represented region that are determined based on different processes according to the type of mesh in the region. Path computations are performed for each representation (e.g., in parallel), then joined to form end-to-end paths between a source and a destination. The computed paths may be used to select a path for routing data through the network.
