Abstract:
Improved network optimization and scaling are provided by combining optimization of traffic engineering and network topologies. Sets of minimal link capacities are determined based on the constraints of network topology, network demand, and failure modes. The optimization problem is reframed to allow for simultaneous optimization across all failure modes, reducing or eliminating overprovisioning in link capacity allocation by utilizing convex optimization solvers and techniques.

Claim (Index 1):
A computer system for generating one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities and identifying and selecting a particular set of optimized minimal link capacities from the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities, the computer system comprising:\n one or more processors; and one or more computer-readable media having stored thereon instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to configure the computer system to generate the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities and identify and select the particular set of optimized minimal link capacities from the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities, including instructions that are executable to configure the computer system to perform at least the following:\n obtain network traffic demand for a network; \n obtain a set of failure scenarios for the network; \n obtain a set of network topologies for the network; \n generate the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities by analyzing the network using an optimization technique that determines each set of optimized minimal link capacities of the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities for the network based on the network traffic demand, the set of failure scenarios, and each corresponding network topology of the set of network topologies; \n identify and select the particular set of optimized minimal link capacities from the one or more sets of optimized minimal link capacities based on one or more predetermined optimality criteria; and \n provide the particular set of optimized minimal link capacities.
