| Abstract: | In this paper, we tackle the question of how anycast communication can improve survivability of connection-oriented networks. The focus on network survivability arises naturally in the context of growing role of computer networks in almost all aspects of human life. We concentrate on connection-oriented networks e.g. MPLS, ATM for the reason that these techniques can provide effective and reliable services in transport network. We take a detailed view on anycast communication from the perspective of network survivability. A new optimization problem is formulated that is equivalent to the problem of joint unicast and anycast flows restoration in connection-oriented networks. Next, we propose a heuristic algorithm solving that problem. Finally, we present results of exhaustive numerical experiments and a comprehensive discussion on the application of anycast communication in the context of network survivability.
