hop-based anycast, especially under a moderate and higher request
generation rate.
Figure 17.6 depicts the anycast request delay and request loss
probability for both the hop-based anycast scheme and the proposed
load-aware anycast scheme against the request generation rate under
2-Mbps bandwidth of VLs and 0.5-Mbps background UDP traf-
fic to mimic the behavior of networks running for a certain period.
e results reveal the similar phenomenon as shown in Figure 17.5,
although the network has run for some time. e results also empha-
size that, as the loads of the network are going moderate, ...
