hierarchical routing - The complex problem of routing on large networks can be simplified by breaking a network into a hierarchy of smaller networks, where each level is responsible for its own routing. The Internet has, basically, three levels: the backbones, the mid-levels, and the stub networks. The backbones know how to route between the mid-levels, the mid-levels know how to route between the sites, and each site (being an autonomous system) knows how to route internally. See also Exterior Gateway Protocol, Interior Gateway Protocol, transit network.

No references found			There are different standards to categorize these routing protocols: proactive routing versus on-demand routing, or flat routing versus hierarchical routing and so on. Subarea Tree Routing (STR) in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks by Liu, Guikai; Shan, Chunli; Wei, Gang; Wang, Hongjiang / Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) 00 Hardcover TK5103 The contributors to this collection propose a technology adoption scale, a reactive hierarchical routing protocol with k-SPR-sets, different ARQ schemes for improving transmission reliability, and channel-aware optimization of energy efficiency in WLANs. Progress in wireless communications research by SciTech Book News Combined with design layout and placement tools, the Pyxis NexusRoute-HPC tool provides powerful all-level hierarchical routing without abstracts, leading to the improved performance and compaction of custom IC designs.
