Abstract:

In this work we demonstrate the use of generating functions for solving recurrence equations, which can occur e.g. in the analysis of routing protocols. We prove an exact bound for the expectation of packets reaching their target in a torus, when the routing protocol makes the packets to favor with probability p in each node a diagonal route to their target. Higher probability increases expectation of successful packets. We consider designing routing protocols according to the scenario and compare them to known results.
