  • Patent number: 7623462
    Abstract: A method for selecting a path in a physical network that selects nodes for the path based on the coordinates of the nodes in a representation of the subject network in space. From a working node M that is included in the selected path, the next node that is selected for the path is a node N such that (a) a link MN exists, and (b) the link MN forms an angle relative to a line that connects working node with the destination node that is smaller than the angle that any other link from node M forms with the line that connects working node with the destination node.
