Abstract:

A genetic algorithm for virtual topology design was proposed. Path length and load balancing of links and nodes were taken into account. The natural number coding, the random population selection, the simple crossover strategy of “two-parents-and-one-kid” and the fixed mutation probability were totally adopted. The algorithm was proved in virtual topology design of NSF(National Science Foundation)network. The effect of parameters of the object functions was discussed. The relation between generation and fitness was analyzed. And the effect of the selection range was referred to as well.

Key words: genetic algorithm, virtual topology, load balancing
