Title:	Full label space reduction in MPLS networks: asymmetric merged tunneling
Author:	Solano Donado, Fernando; Fabregat Gesa, Ramon; Marzo i Lázaro, Josep Lluís
Abstract:	Traffic Engineering objective is to optimize network resource utilization. Although several works have been published about minimizing network resource utilization in MPLS networks, few of them have been focused in LSR label space reduction. This letter studies Asymmetric Merged Tunneling (AMT) as a new method for reducing the label space in MPLS network. The proposed method may be regarded as a combination of label merging (proposed in the MPLS architecture) and asymmetric tunneling (proposed recently in our previous works). Finally, simulation results are performed by comparing AMT with both ancestors. They show a great improvement in the label space reduction factor
