21 /** @brief Autonomous Systems
23 * An AS is a network container, in charge of routing information between elements (hosts) and to the nearby ASes.
24 * In SimGrid, there is a hierarchy of ASes, ie a tree with a unique root AS, that you can retrieve from the
27 * The purpose of the kernel::routing module is to retrieve the routing path between two points in a time- and
28 * space-efficient manner. This is done by AsImpl::getGlobalRoute(), called when creating a communication to
29 * retrieve both the list of links that the create communication will use, and the summed latency that these
32 * The network could recompute the latency by itself from the list, but it would require an additional link
33 * set traversal. This operation being on the critical path of SimGrid, the routing computes the latency on the
34 * behalf of the network.
36 * Finding the path between two nodes is rather complex because we navigate a hierarchy of ASes, each of them
37 * being a full network. In addition, the routing can declare shortcuts (called bypasses), either within an AS
38 * at the route level or directly between ASes. Also, each AS can use a differing routing algorithm, depending
39 * on its class. @ref{AsFull} have a full matrix giving explicitly the path between any pair of their
40 * contained nodes, while @ref{AsDijkstra} or @ref{AsFloyd} rely on a shortest path algorithm. @ref{AsVivaldi}
41 * does not even have any link but only use only coordinate information to compute the latency.
43 * So AsImpl::getGlobalRoute builds the path recursively asking its specific information to each traversed AS with
44 * AsImpl::getLocalRoute, that is redefined in each sub-class.
45 * The algorithm for that is explained in http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00650233/
