Abstract:

Kterminal network reliability analysis with length constraint has many applications in online video and realtime communications. Basically, we calculate kterminal network reliability under the condition that the length between any terminalpair of kterminals is within a given time delay constraint called D. We study k terminal network reliability with length constraint, and propose a truncationbased path constraint method on the basis of the traditional terminalpair and kterminal network reliability algorithms. We also build a binary decision diagram (BDD) model to analyze kterminal network reliability with constraints. The proposed algorithm has strong practical significance for k terminal pointtopoint information flow to accomplish transmission under a certain time delay. Experimental results validate the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.
