A method for engineering traffic in a communications system includes determining a set of delay constraints associated with a traffic flow over the communications system (block 505), and excluding non-convex constraints from the set of delay constraints, thereby producing a set of convex constraints (block 510). The method also includes selecting a path solution for the traffic flow in accordance with the set of convex constraints (block 515), and sending information regarding the path solution to nodes in the communications system (block 520). |
