Abstract

In this paper, we provide a polynomial-time approximation algorithm for Call Control and Routing problems in SONET rings. In this problem, we are given a SONET ring and a set of calls, each of which is described by a source-destination pair of nodes together with an integer specifying the call demand, the aim is to devise a routing scheme such that the total demand transmitted is maximum subject to the bandwidth restriction. We first give an \(\cal NP\)-hardness proof for this problem. Then a polynomial-time approximation algorithm is provided. When \(d_{max}\leq \frac{1}{K}d^* \) (where K > 2 is a constant, d * is the available bandwidth of the ring and d max is the largest call demand among all the calls), the algorithm outputs a routing scheme with total demand transmitted at least as \((1-\frac{7}{2K+3})\) times the optimum.
