Advance in the Research on Routing Strategy of Networks

With the wide application of complex networks in many fields, how to improve the transportation efficiency has become the bottleneck of its further development in practice. This article classifies these routing ways from four aspects-reassigning the distribution of nodes' capacity and links' bandwidth, modifying network topology, designing routing strategies, and proposing queuing strategies. we also introduce some influential strategies in detail. Finally, we point out some potential directions in the future. This work is helpful for new learners and researchers to be familiar with this field and may be helpful for network designers or regulators to improve the network efficiency and avoid traffic jams.
