Hierarchical Placement and Network Design Problems
White Papers This paper gives the first constant-approximations for a number of layered network design problems. It begins by modeling hierarchical caching, where caches are placed in layers and each layer satisfies a fixed percentage of the demand (bounded...

Multi-Layer Network Design With Multicast Traffic and Statistical Multiplexing
White Papers The classical network design approaches are no longer appropriate since they cannot capture the traffic aggregation effect due to the added packet layer, and new multi-layer network design models must be adopted.
