摘要

The improved algorithm of Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory is proposed in this paper in order to evaluate the performance of the algorithm in achieving stable inter-domain path selection in a network security management system. This work examines D-S theory along with the comprehensive assessment approaches found in the literature. We studied the basic definition, Dempster's rule of combination, the convertibility of the frame of discernment of D-S theory, as well as evidential reasoning approaches for multi-attribute decision making with uncertainty. Experimental results show that this algorithm effectively reduces the ARD route convergence time as well as the amount of updated ARD route information during the convergence.
