ABSTRACT:
A routing system in a multimedia integrated network formed of nodes connected by links is provided for transmitting various media such as voice, image and data in a packet format. The respective nodes forming the integrated network output the packets in an optimum output direction so that conditions required by various media and reliability of communication are satisfied. Each node includes an interconnection type neural network for determining the packet output direction. An external stimulus input unit outputs an external stimulus to the neurons in the neural network in response to a present state of the integrated network, such as a packet delay time and a packet loss ratio for respective links, and a condition required by the media such as an allowable packet loss ratio. Therefore, the packet is output in an optimum direction which is adaptive to the present state of the integrated network and which satisfies a condition required by the media.
