Abstract

Based on the mature user equilibrium (UE) theory in transportation field as well as the similarity of network flow between transportation and communication, in this paper, the user equilibrium theory was applied to communication networks, and how to apply the stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) to flow assigning in generalized communication networks was further studied. The stochastic link equilibrium (SLE) flow assignment strategy was proposed in this paper, the algorithm of SLE flow assignment was also provided. Both analyses and simulation based on the given algorithm proved that the optimal flow assignment in networks can be achieved by using this algorithm.
