Scientific paper

A natural hierarchical framework for network topology abstraction is presented based on an analogy with the Kadanoff transformation and renormalisation group in theoretical physics. Some properties of the renormalisation group bear similarities to the scalability properties of network routing protocols (interactions). Central to our abstraction are two intimately connected and complementary path diversity units: simple cycles, and cycle adjacencies. A recursive network abstraction procedure is presented, together with an associated generic recursive routing protocol family that offers many desirable features.
