Abstract

This paper deals with Unrestorable Flow Optimisation (UFO) problem in networks protected by p-cycles. This novel protection technique is used as the efficient tool for ensuring survivability of computer networks. In this paper there have been formulated mathematical model of UFO problem, discussed its theoretical properties, and proposed the original solution algorithm based chiefly on metaheuristics. The algorithm combines k-shortest paths method, multi knapsack problem, p-cycles generator, linear programming and some local search procedures.
