Calculation of routing value in MPLS network according to traffic fractal properties

Abstract: Method for calculating routing cost of MPLS network is presented in the work. This method allows to minimize routing cost, taking into account traffic fractal properties, choice of traffic transmission path and quality of service requirements. The method uses values of the Hurst parameter and value of normalized spread of traffic values, which makes it possible to apply it to self-similar and multifractal data streams.
