Communication path control system

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To improve the throughput of the whole of a network by repeating the informing and updating of information to be informed between all the processors until the title system is made into a state in which no information exists and managing the state of a virtual path with a self processor as either a start edge or a relay point in the respective processors. CONSTITUTION:For example, when the establishment of the paths between a self processor #0 and processors #1-#3 adjacent to the self processor #0 is detected, the self processor #0 checks whether virtual path information 2-11 managed in the self processor #0 is to be informed to the adjacent processors #1-#3 or not. Further, when the virtual path information 2-11 is to be informed, the self processor #0 informs an applicable processor out of the processors #1-#3 of the virtual path information 2-11, and when virtual path information 2-13 is informed from the other adjacent processors #1-#3, or when the self processor #0 detects the disconnection of the paths between the self processor #0 and the adjacent processors #1-#3, and self processor #0 changes the virtual path information 2-11 managed in the self processor #0, checks whether the virtual path information 2-11 managed in the self processor #0 is to be informed to the other adjacent processors #1-#3 or not, and informs the applicable processor out of the processors #1-#3 the virtual path information 2-11 when the virtual path information 2-11 is to be informed. Thus, the throughput of the whole of the network can be improved.
