A DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISTRIBUTING RESOURCES OF A PHYSICAL NETWORK

摘要

A device for distributing resources of a given physical network among logical links by subdividing physical link capacities into logical links using an algorithm. The device comprises a first neural network, in which one part of the algorithm is implemented, and a second neural network, in which a second part of the algorithm is implemented, said two neural networks interworking to compute logical link capacities. Furthermore, a method for distributing resources of a given physical network among logical links by subdividing physical link capacities into said logical links is provided. More specifically, the method involves the use of a first neural network, in which one part of an algorithm is implemented, and a second neural network, in which a second part of an algorithm is implemented, said two neural networks interworking to compute logical link capacities so that the operation of the physical network, given an objective function, is generally optimized, according to the objective function.
