Abstract :
Fuzzy logic is an excellent heuristic method to aid in coming to grips with the complexity problem in communication and computer networks. Four examples show the use of fuzzy logic in routing. (1) We show the use of explicitly available information in the form of routing tables. (2) We show the use of implicitly available information in the form of experience and heuristic knowledge in distributed networks. Then we show the use of fuzzy logic in (3) call admission control and (4) usage parameter control programs for broadband ISDN networks
