Rekha V., M. Indiramma . Agent based Monitoring and Scheduling Technique Framework for Backup Configurations. International Journal of Computer Applications. 124, 8 ( August 2015), 10-14. DOI=10.5120/ijca2015905533
In Multi Route Configurations (MRC) protocol when failure is detected, it forwards the packets over preconfigured alternative next-hops and immediately recovers from single or multiple failures. Multipath routing provides multipath communication and improves network transmission reliability. However, when there is a huge amount of traffic in the network existing MRC follows default scheduling which results in large transmission delay for high priority packet. Hence it is a challenging problem, and highly influences the performance of MRC. In this paper, we propose an Agent based Monitoring and Scheduling Technique (AMST) algorithm which provides a generic framework for packet scheduling. The main idea of AMST algorithm is to schedule the packets based on its priority and by selecting the transmission path with lowest transmission delay.
