Francois (2007) Avoiding Transient Loops During the Convergence of Link-State Routing Protocols (TON)
This paper studies the problem of transient loops in the time of link-state routing protocol convergence. When a link failure or recovery occurs in a link state protocol, there could be problems of transient loops. The loop is transient because it is a result of mixing the old routes with...

Benson et al (2010) The Case for Fine-grained Traffic Engineering in Data-centers (INM/WREN)
In DCN, congestion occurs in only up to a few seconds. This congestion can be alleviated if optimal routing is used. However, existing traffic engineering technique fail to provide any of the following:

Al-Fare et al (2008) A Scalable, Commodity Data Center Network Architecture (SIGCOMM)
This paper proposes the use of fat-tree topology in data center network and discuss its benefit. Architecture is described, including the addressing scheme, routing mechanism, flow scheduling for load-balancing.
