Abstract

How should calls be routed in a circuit-switched communication network so as to minimize some overall measure of blocking? Here we show that under a simplified analytical model of a circuit-switched network there exist implicit shadow prices associated with each route and with each link of the network. These prices are defined in an essentially local manner, and can be used as a basis for distributed control of routing through the network.
