Abstract

Embodiments include methods, apparatus, and systems for choosing nodes in a multi-network. One embodiment includes a method that receives demand characteristics for nodes to form a cluster in multi-network and collapses groups of nodes in the multi-network to form a node group. The method then selects nodes that satisfy the demand characteristics in order to form the cluster.
