New algorithm For boosting routing efficiency of networks

The algorithm named XL increases network routing efficiency by suppressing updates from parts of the system – updates which force connected networks to continuously re-calculate the paths they use in the great matrix of the Internet.The key contribution to is to reduce the communication overhead of the route computation by propogating only some updates in turn reducing the number of updates sent through the network Hope the Content Delivery Networks like Akamai is listening :)
