Finding the best path routing using multi-agent system

Abstract EN

This work presents a new approach to accommodate routing demands in a highly dynamic network where segment status is rapidly changing to find the best path, the router does not need to look at the network as a whole, as it is the case in routing algorithms designed so far.

The proposed system consists of several agents (multi-agent) shared by some types of information for the purpose of clarifying the case of the network in general in the way to suggest the best path, which is used by the message from the source to the destination.

Each agent activated at each router called Agent Suprouter to acquire local data of the current router, this data gathered from the neighboring agents in order to direct path of moving packet from source to destination.

In the proposed system, an intelligent notification message exchanged by Agents Sup-routers enable the system to evaluate the current status of the network instantly.

This status has been acquired by the proposed distributed Intelligent Agents as an initiation for finding the best path.

The proposed system has been implemented using java language and JADE platform.
