What about doing some work in multi-path routing in the inter-domain? i.e. enabling a router to use multiple paths with potential different characteristics to forward packets across domains. Would people find this topic interesting?
I'd guess they would, since the idea is so old and also underexploited. But does it bring in real extra value? I.e. does anybody know whether multipath routing could significantly increase the total utilization of the routing fabric, either now or under some theoretically founded future situation?
If nobody knows, a preliminary study could be IRTF material. -- Sampo Syreeni, aka decoy - [email protected], http://decoy.iki.fi/front +358-50-5756111, 025E D175 ABE5 027C 9494 EEB0 E090 8BA9 0509 85C2 _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
