AI meets SR: a survey on enhancing segment-routing performance with artificial intelligence

Jul 2026 · Telecommunications Systems · Vol 89 · 0 citations · 51 references

TL;DR

This survey delivers the first systematic exploration of how artificial intelligence can bolster SR, from traffic classification and segment-list computation to fast reroute, service-function chaining, and multi-domain orchestration by spanning supervised and unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and hybrid pipelines that fuse forecasting, neural optimization, and heuristic search.

Scalable Traffic Allocation in Dynamic Networks via End-to-End Imitation Learning

Networks with highly dynamic data transmission demands and network topologies are common in real world. A fundamental problem in such networks is achieving scalable traffic allocation to maximize long-term total throughput under link capacity constraints. However, state-of-the-art (SOTA) works lack scalability. This is...

An Adaptive and Performance-Aware Firewall Rule Reconfiguration Mechanism for Network Traffic Patterns

As the modern network infrastructure continue to become more and more complex, massive set of firewall rules have been produced, which causes large package classification latency and poor resource utilization. Firewall rule ordering is an NP-hard mathematical programming problem in which the wrong sequencing of firewal...
