RouteNet-Erlang

This is the official implementation of RouteNet-Erlang, a pioneering GNN architecture designed to model computer networks. RouteNet-Erlang supports complex traffic models, multi-queue scheduling policies, routing policies and can provide accurate estimates in networks not seen in the training phase.

If you decide to apply the concepts presented or base on the provided code, please do refer our paper.

Quick Start

Project structure

The project is divided into three main blocks: scheduling, traffic models, and scalability. Each block has its own directory and contains its own files. In each directory we can find four main files:

• model.py: contains the code of the GNN model.
• main.py: contains the code for the training/validation of the model.
• config.ini: contains the configuration of the experiment. Number of epochs, batch size, learning rate, number of neurons, etc.
• check_predictions.py: contains the code for the predictions. It automatically loads the best-trained model and saves its predictions in a predictions.npy file that can be read using NumPy.

The project also contains some auxiliary files like datanetAPI.py used to read the different datasets and the read_dataset.py that is used to convert the samples provided by the dataset API into the graph that is taken as input by the model.

You can find more information about the reproducibility of the experiments inside each one of the directories (Scheduling, Traffic Models, Scalability).
