B. Purohit et al., TECHNIQUES FOR ROUTEING AND SCHEDULING SERVICES ON A TRANSMISSION NETWORK, British Telecom technology journal, 13(1), 1995, pp. 64-72
A problem is presented that requires both routeing and scheduling of m
ultiple services on a circuit switched transmission network. The techn
iques investigated were simulated annealing, classifier systems, hill
climbing and random search. Two groups of test problems were used and
the preliminary results are presented which provide a ranking of vario
us techniques
