Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for evaluating requests for a network connection combining the requested network connection with existing connections so as to provide a representation of the total network connections and accepting the request for a network connection if sufficient resources are available to accept the request for a network connection based upon the representation of the total network connections. Particular embodiments of the present invention determine if sufficient resources are available to accept the request for a network connection based upon diffusion based representations of the existing network connections and the requested network connection and accepting the request for a network connection if sufficient resources are available to accept the request for a network connection. The diffusion based representation may be used to determine the capacity required for existing connections and the requested connection based upon a predefined maximum loss ratio (L).
