Abstract

In one embodiment, a method is disclosed in which a device receives delay information for a communication segment in a network. The device determines a predictability measurement for delays along the segment using the received delay information. The predictability measurement is advertised to one or more devices in the network and used as a routing constraint to select a routing path in the network.
