Abstract
There are several management tasks in a telecommunication network. Among which traffic management is one of the most important and difficult tasks. It is concerned with maximizing network efficiency when the network is under stress either due to overload or failure. New attempts to automate this task such as expert system based approach are yet to be perfected. In this thesis, we advocate a new concept of traffic management. Our scheme consists of two levels. At the first level, we introduce a Self-organization model to dynamically configure a map for a satellite communication network. The second level is a routing procedure which manages the traffic of the network under a fixed configuration. This thesis mainly addresses the first level management. The incorporation of the two levels represents our continuing effort to maximize the network efficiency and, at this point, is left as a future pursuit. Experimental results are presented to support the feasibility of our new scheme.
