Abstract With the advent of non-hierarchical routing in circuit-switched telecommunication networks, on-line routing policies have been developed with the objective of optimizing some measure of gain or performance. These policies are decentralized. However, traditional planning models are centralized models. We present a decentralized routing model to be used in network planning. We compare it theoretically and empirically with a centralized multicommodity flow model previously presented. The two models are solved by the same type of algorithm, a convex simplex implementation, adapted differently according to the model. Comparative results between planning models reproducing the two policies are discussed.
