  • Method and apparatus for estimating traffic flows using dynamic latency constraints
    Patent number: 7957427
    Abstract: A method and apparatus that use dynamic latency to estimate traffic flows in a communication network are disclosed. For example, the method obtains a demand matrix having at least one point pair demand, and satisfies each of the at least one point pair demand in the demand matrix by selecting a shortest path that minimizes a dynamic latency and a number of hops.
