摘要：In order to satisfy a request for a connection path having a specified capacitybetween two specified terminations of a telecommunications network (91), a store (90) ofroutings and available capacities is searched to identify a connection path to satisfy therequest; and if no connection path with adequate capacity is present in the store (90), amodel (96) of the network is tested to identify suitable connection paths between therequested terminations, which are then added to the store (90), and allocated so as tosatisfy the request. The search for suitable connection paths can take into account thehierarchical structure of the network (91) to identify suitable links to build up a path stepby step. In a preferred arrangement the path is built up from each terminal point, at eachstage using the link in the network which will bring the resulting ends of the two partialpaths closest together, utilising, as a measure, a distance weighted according to thehierarchical level of the link.
