Jessica Stroup discovers a new algorithm for network efficiency

By Jonathan + August 28th, 2008

There’s nothing I like more than efficient network routing. NOTHING! So that’s why I was delighted that some computer scientists at University of California have developed one. You know what that means? Packet latency will lower! Yes! w00t! W00T! THIS IS AMAZING!

Anyhow, when you think network efficiency, you can’t help but think Jessica Stroup from the new ‘90210′ series. I know what you’re thinking, “Keebler, isn’t that the actress that kissed Heather Graham in Broken (2007)?” Yes :)

A time-and-money-saving question shared by commuters in their cars and networks sharing ever-changing Internet resources is: “What’s the best way to get from here to there?”

A new algorithm developed by computer scientists at the University of California, San Diego helps answer that question, at least for computer networks, and it promises to significantly boost the efficiency of network routing.

Called XL, for approximate link state, the algorithm increases network routing efficiency by suppressing updates from parts of the system – updates which force connected networks to continuously re-calculate the paths they use in the great matrix of the Internet.
