Abstract
Dynamically created routing table structures which may find application as routing tables for ATM or other computer networks provide a selection of pre-computed routes optimized to a specified constraint such as delay and delay variation (e.g., as measured by CTD and CDV), or administrative weight (AW). The routing tables may be implemented as shortest path trees, e.g., as may be generated by a Dijkstra process, which represent the computed routes within the network, optimized to a specified constraint for one or more specified network service categories. Thus, the routing tables allow for rapid compilation of one or more source-computed routes (e.g., DTLs in an ATM network). In some cases, the routing tables may include alternate routes between network nodes. Any number of tables, between a minimum of three and a maximum of ten, may be created.
