RE: The Network is Chaos should Routing be based on that Chaos
Title: Message
I'm
sure that I need a couple of shots of Scotch before I'm in the frame of
mind
to
fully understand where you're going Jim, but lemme see if I can
clarify.
You're
suggesting that routing not only know where static hosts are, but
also
ones
that are changing location and that routing try to 'predict' where the
host
will
be next. Did I get that right?
If I
could write code that did that, I'd use it on the stock market, not on
the
Internet. ;-) I think you agree in your last line. I'm
not sure what you were
proposing at the last bit tho. Care to expound?

Chaotic
Routing:
Whatever we define
today will become chaotic tomorrow?
Does fractal
analysis teach us anything? We may be able to group fractals for a
period of time, but by definition the inherent chaotic property of those
fractals will destroy any static order defined?
So there are
multiple levels to address the Chaotic Routing model:
1. At time T the
topology is at Location A
2. At time T1 the
topology is at Location A+1
Could it be we
need enhancement to routing protocols to just exist for Location
change?
Then under that
routing we know how to do now based on that Location change, it becomes
adaptive to Location A+1.
Predicting
chaotic rate of change is impossible I suggest, and the best we can
do is define Location and within specific rendezvous segments within that
Location, which can be adaptive to T+1?
