Abstract

This paper determines the overall reliability of computer networks in which m-level hierarchical routing strategies are used for the communication between their nodes. Also, the clusters have dynamic boundaries, i.e. when a cluster is decomposed the network reacts by reorganizing itself into a new set of clusters in order to continue to communicate, if possible, with the components of the decomposed subnetwork. The proposed method first enumerates all the minimal cutsets and then evaluates very efficiently the overall reliability. The presented technique is very useful when large computer networks or many interconnected networks are examined.
