Assessment Technique and Selection of Interconnecting Line of Information Networks

Abstract

This article contains information on assessment technique and selection of interconnecting line of information networks. The article presents a variant of engineering synthesis of computer network, which is a combined process of mathematical and heuristic methods combining. All the significant network quality indicators, including economic and practical, are taken into consideration. In case of engineering synthesis it is not possible that only one quality indicator is significant: there are always at least two significant indicators – a cost and an indicator that characterizes the main effect that is achieved in case of network use (efficacy). If at least one of the quality indicators significant for practical use is not taken into account, such network cannot be considered optimal. If network topology is maintained unchanged, it is possible to formulate an optimization task for line transmission capacity. The solution of transmission capacity task, which is constantly changing, may be chosen as a starting point for the selection of discrete indicator of transmission capacity.
