We propose a new routing strategy for controlling packet routing on complex networks. The delivery capability of each node is adopted as a piece of local information to be integrated with the load traffic dynamics to weight the next route. The efficiency of transport on complex network is measured by the network capacity, which is enhanced by distributing the traffic load over the whole network while nodes with high handling ability bear relative heavier traffic burden. By avoiding the packets through hubs and selecting next routes optimally, most travel times become shorter. The simulation results show that the new strategy is not only effective for scale-free networks but also for mixed networks in realistic networks.

In recent years, the transportation systems have to face the increasing challenges of congestion and inefficiency, and therefore the research on traffic dynamics of complex networks has become a significant area. When the total node capacity of the network is fixed, a reasonable queue resource reallocation strategy is effective in improving the network traffic capacity. In this paper, a new queue resource allocation method is proposed based on the betweenness centrality and the degree centrality of nodes. With the proposed strategy, the node queue length is allocated accurately to enhance the transport efficiency. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively improve the traffic capacity of the scale-free networks.

The network topology structure has great impact on its traffic capacity. Most of the biological and technological networks have been proved to exhibit scale-free feature. In real networks, the hub links, which usually bear large traffic loads, have restricted transport efficiency of the complex networks. In this paper, we focus on the bandwidth congestion and propose a rewiring link strategy to optimize traffic dynamics on scale-free networks. Two link rewiring strategies are compared and the simulation results on scale-free networks show that our strategy has more advantages, which makes the degree distribution of the network more uniform, reducing the average path length of different nodes, balancing the resources of the network and increasing the traffic capacity of the network. This work will be beneficial for designing network topology and optimizing network performances.

In this paper, a hybrid queuing strategy (HQS) is proposed in traffic dynamics model on scale-free networks, where the delivery priority of packets in the queue is related to their distance to destination and the queue length of next jump. We compare the performance of the proposed HQS with that of the traditional first-in-first-out (FIFO) queuing strategy and the shortest-remaining-path-first (SRPF) queuing strategy proposed by Du et al. It is observed that the network traffic efficiency utilizing HQS with suitable value of parameter h can be further improved in the congestion state. Our work provides new insights for the understanding of the networked-traffic systems.

The traffic dynamics of complex networks are largely determined by the node’s resource distribution. In this paper, based on the shortest path routing strategy, a node delivering capacity distribution mechanism is proposed into the traffic dynamics in Barabási and Albert (BA) scale-free networks; the efficiency of the mechanism on the network capacity measured by the critical point ([Formula: see text]) of phase transition from free flow to congestion is primarily explored. Based on the proposed strategy, the total delivering capacity is reallocated according to both degree and betweenness of each node, and an optimal value of parameter [Formula: see text] is found, leading to the maximum traffic capacity. The results of numerical experiments on scale-free networks suggest that the resource allocation strategy proposed here is capable of effectively enhancing the transmission capacity of networks. Furthermore, this study may provide novel insights into research on networked traffic systems.
