/** @brief Autonomous Systems
*
* An AS is a network container, in charge of routing information between elements (hosts) and to the nearby ASes.
- * In SimGrid, there is a hierarchy (a tree) of ASes, with a unique root AS (that you can retrieve from the
- * s4u::Engine).
+ * In SimGrid, there is a hierarchy of ASes, ie a tree with a unique root AS, that you can retrieve from the
+ * s4u::Engine.
+ *
+ * The purpose of the kernel::routing module is to retrieve the routing path between two points in a time- and
+ * space-efficient manner. This is done by AsImpl::getGlobalRoute(), called when creating a communication to
+ * retrieve both the list of links that the create communication will use, and the summed latency that these
+ * links represent.
+ *
+ * The network could recompute the latency by itself from the list, but it would require an additional link
+ * set traversal. This operation being on the critical path of SimGrid, the routing computes the latency on the
+ * behalf of the network.
+ *
+ * Finding the path between two nodes is rather complex because we navigate a hierarchy of ASes, each of them
+ * being a full network. In addition, the routing can declare shortcuts (called bypasses), either within an AS
+ * at the route level or directly between ASes. Also, each AS can use a differing routing algorithm, depending
+ * on its class. @ref{AsFull} have a full matrix giving explicitly the path between any pair of their
+ * contained nodes, while @ref{AsDijkstra} or @ref{AsFloyd} rely on a shortest path algorithm. @ref{AsVivaldi}
+ * does not even have any link but only use only coordinate information to compute the latency.
+ *
+ * So AsImpl::getGlobalRoute builds the path recursively asking its specific information to each traversed AS with
+ * AsImpl::getLocalRoute, that is redefined in each sub-class.
+ * The algorithm for that is explained in http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00650233/
