Abstract
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is widely used in telecommunications systems to send data, video and voice at a very high speed. In ATM network the Quality of Service (QoS) is an important consideration. This paper deals with dynamic routing algorithm for homogeneous ATM networks. In this work Genetic Algorithm(GA) is used to find out best possible Virtual Path(VP) keeping in mind the QoS. We propose a new initialization technique for solving the dynamic routing problem with GA which improves the efficiency of GA and optimizes the bandwidth. The optimized bandwidth could mean that some attractive business applications such as high speed LAN interconnection, teleconferencing, would become feasible or more available to business users. We have also performed a comparative study of the selection mechanisms and listed the best selection mechanism.
