Details of the optimization algorithms
Exact optimization is realized with CPLEX (the problems are written in OPL). The formulations are quite typical for convex programming-based resilient network design with linearization of the concave goal function and it is given in the paper:
- Formulation for NR (non-recovery): .MOD file.
- Network data for the Poland network (PL) for NR: .DAT file.
- Formulation for DP (dedicated path protection): .MOD file.
- Formulation for SP (shared backup path protection): .MOD file.
- Network data for the Poland network (PL) for DP/SP: .DAT file.
- Formulation for DL (dedicated link protection): .MOD file.
- Formulation for SL (shared backup link protection): .MOD file.
- Network data for the Poland network (PL) for DL/SL: .DAT file.
MATLAB algorithm uses heuristic based on the modified Yaged’s approach.
Iterative optimization-simulation algorithm
We optimized the mixed combination of recovery methods for selected risk mitigation strategies:
Optimization is again realized with CPLEX and Matlab. The formulation is given in the paper. Here you can find the optimization problem in .MOD file. The MATLAB files with the whole iterative optimization/simulation procedure is given here in .ZIP file.
Results for various networks
The paper presents results for the Poland network only. Here, we also present the results for other tested networks retrieved from the SNDLib library:
