Evaluating Optimized Router-Level Network Topology Derived from Network Flow Method

This work focuses on modeling router-level network topologies. We studied global optimization models to deal with realistic network conditions that engineers face in the design process. Appropriate network conditions must be applied to the models. Our interest is in analyzing what network conditions lead to power-law networks, which is regarded as a feature of real networks. Evaluations of these network conditions to analyze the network topologies obtained by a global optimization model are presented.
