Abstract:Bottleneck analysis is a useful tool in capacity planning for centrally controlled network systems. However, under a decentralized network, where individual users are allowed to select their own routes, straightforward application of bottleneck analysis does not necessarily yield an optimal performance. It may even hurt the system performance - an aspect of Braess's paradox. The authors investigate the capacity expansion problem for a decentralized system with general network topology.
