Abstract :
A general description of the behavior of a communication network is given by codes specifying the relationships between each node´s observable source processes and its input and output signals. In this work we focus on acyclic multicast networks, and consider two formulations for quantifying network management for link failure recovery, in terms of selecting between codes.
