Virtual network embedding(VNE) is a key issue in network virtualization. VNE is NP-hard and former VNE algorithms are mostly heuristic in the literature.VNE exact algorithms have been developed in recent years. However, the constraints of exact VNE are only node capacity and link bandwidth.Based on these, this paper presents an exact VNE algorithm, ILP-LC, which is based on Integer Linear Programming(ILP), for embedding virtual network request with location constraints. This novel algorithm is aiming at mapping virtual network request(VNR) successfully as many as possible and consuming less substrate resources.The topology of each VNR is randomly generated by Waxman model. Simulation results show that the proposed ILP-LC algorithm outperforms the typical heuristic algorithms in terms of the VNR acceptance ratio, at least 15%.展开更多

In the algorithm, the objective function hyperplane is used as a cutting plane, and then by introducing a special set of assistant sets, an efficient heuristic search for the solution to the integer linear program is carried out in the sets on the objective function hyperplane. A simple numerical example shows that the algorithm is efficient for some problems, and therefore, of practical interest.展开更多

We first slightly modify the maximum step size in the predictor step of the safeguard based Mehrotra-type algorithm for linear programming, that was proposed by Salahi et al. Then, using the machinery of Euclidean Jordan algebras, we extend the modified algorithm to symmetric cones. Based on the Nesterov-Todd direction, we obtain O(r log ε1) iteration complexity bound of this algorithm, where r is the rank of the Jordan algebras and ε is the required precision. We also present a new variant of Mehrotra-type algorithm using a new adaptive updating scheme of centering parameter and show that this algorithm enjoys the same order of complexity bound as the safeguard algorithm. We illustrate the numerical behaviour of the methods on some small examples.展开更多

The fuzzy random theory is applied in the new prioritization method. By modifying the principle of decision making implied in the GFPP method, the improved group fuzzy preference programming (IGFPP) method is formulated as a fuzzy linear programming problem to maximize the average degree of the group satisfaction with all possible group priority vectors. The IGFPP method inherits the advantages of the GFPP method, and solves the weighting trouble existed in the GFPP method. Numerical tests indicate that the IGFPP method performs more effectively than the GFPP method in the case of very contradictive comparison judgments from decision makers.展开更多
