SUMMARY

Analyzing the solutions for Constructing the expand Proposing the new
optimizing router power network and formulate a algorithms and proving
management globally at model to minimize the used their efficiency in
network level during low power in router network synthetic and real network
activity mode under constraints

The proposed algorithms are

Proposed methods are innovative and practical and can be scalable to
1 advantageous than others in same domain any network topology

Converting router network into Network is described as a directed

2 mathematic and programmable paradigm graph → easy to expand or modify

Doing experiments with significant results in

Synthetic network: global greedy
3 both theory and practice algorithm saved 61% line-cards,
alternative one saved 28%.
Real network: global greedy algorithm
saved 67% of line-cards.
