  • Custom Process for Energy-Saving Melt-Draw Tapered Type Backbone Network

    Custom Process for Energy-Saving Melt-Draw Tapered Type Backbone Network

    A network-level green energy-saving mechanism over the backbone networks is proposed in this study: for one thing, in the global view, a smallest remaining capacity first (SRCF) based green routing algorithm is used to plan the global routing paths in the networks . A network-level green energy-saving mechanism over the backbone networks is proposed in this study: for one thing, in the global view, a smallest remaining capacity first (SRCF) based green routing algorithm is used to plan the global routing paths in the networks . In this paper, we propose a new Segment Routing (SR)-based optimization algorithm that aims at reducing the energy consumption of networks during such low-trafic periods. It uses the trafic steering capabilities of SR to remove trafic from as many links as possible to allow the respective hardware. In some cases, features with vertical sidewall can not be used, since it is not feasible to have good step coverage at the sharp corner in following spray coating or sputtering processes. This approach is based on the solution of an optimization problem that has a Mixed Integer NonLinear Programming (MINLP) formulation.
