distributes traffic among available equal cost paths based on a set of predetermined ratios. – While most existing work tries to minimize the traffic load on the most utilized link‚ we develop a model to optimize the end-to-end delay – present a heuristic algorithm to obtain the nearoptimal weight configuration. 3 Problem Formulation • The network is represented by a connected graph G(V‚E) with node set V and directed edge set E. Let’s denote the notations as follows: • Link delay

economic practices. Today‚ science is tackling the explanations of our tendencies for instant gratification in terms of heuristics: shortcuts in analysis that are hardwired into our brain to optimize survival. We are evolutionarily programmed to employ these cognitive biases‚ to use our energy sparingly‚ to “be frugal with our mental resources” (Sundar 74); the use of these heuristics is an adaptation that explains our proclivity for all these myopic behaviors definitive of our popular culture.
