Load Balancing and Alternative Path Selection in Self-Organized Networks: A Data Plane Approach
This paper presents a novel load balancing algorithm tailored for deeply programmable networks, offering a decentralized approach to optimizing packet forwarding and load distribution. Unlike conventional systems reliant on centralized controllers or manual configurations, this algorithm operates entirely within the data plane, leveraging controlled flooding to dynamically discover and reroute traffic based on real-time congestion data. By detecting latency spikes indicative of congestion, switches autonomously select alternative paths to maintain optimal traffic flow. Implemented in the P4 data plane programming language, the algorithm is rigorously evaluated against existing load balancing methods for self-organized networks. The results demonstrate significant reductions in data transmission times, improved path symmetry, and enhanced scalability under various network conditions, making it a robust solution for modern, self-organized, and high-performance networks.

期刊介绍:
IEEE Access® is a multidisciplinary, open access (OA), applications-oriented, all-electronic archival journal that continuously presents the results of original research or development across all of IEEE''s fields of interest.
IEEE Access will publish articles that are of high interest to readers, original, technically correct, and clearly presented. Supported by author publication charges (APC), its hallmarks are a rapid peer review and publication process with open access to all readers. Unlike IEEE''s traditional Transactions or Journals, reviews are "binary", in that reviewers will either Accept or Reject an article in the form it is submitted in order to achieve rapid turnaround. Especially encouraged are submissions on:
Multidisciplinary topics, or applications-oriented articles and negative results that do not fit within the scope of IEEE''s traditional journals.
Practical articles discussing new experiments or measurement techniques, interesting solutions to engineering.
Development of new or improved fabrication or manufacturing techniques.
Reviews or survey articles of new or evolving fields oriented to assist others in understanding the new area.
