  • Patent number: 10929194
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention includes applying a first partition to a plurality of LPs, wherein a particular LP is assigned to a first set of LPs. A second partition is applied to the LPs, wherein the particular LP is assigned to an LP set different from the first set. For both the first and second partitions, lookahead values and transit times are determined for each of the LPs and related links. For the first partition, a first system progression rate is computed using a specified function with the lookahead values and transit times determined for the first partition. For the second partition, a second system progression rate is computed using the specified function with the lookahead values and transit times determined for the second partition. The first and second system progression rates are compared to determine which is the lowest.
