  • Abstract
    A weighted double-loop network can be modeled by a directed graph G(n; h1, h2; w1, w2) with vertex set Zn={0, 1, ..., n-1} and edge set E=E1∪E2, where E1={(u, u+h1 )|u∈Zn}, E2={(u, u+h2)|u∈Zn}. Assume that the weight of each edge in E1 is w1 and the weight of each edge in E 2 is w2. In this paper, we present an optimal routing algorithm on double-loop networks under the case where there is at most one faulty element. Our algorithm is based on the fact that the shortest path from a vertex to any other vertex in a double-loop network is in the L-shape region
