Abstract(in English) With the explosive growth of the Internet, the amount of electricity consumed by networking devices is now rapidly increasing. Therefore, energy efficient technology for networking devices becomes important issues. One proposed solution to the energy-saving issues is that each switch interface changes its state between active and sleep depending on traffic arrival. However, the solution is focused on power-saving of single networking device. In order to reduce more of total energy consumption of many network devices in a network, the arrival traffic to the network should be efficiently accommodated to the path composed by the smallest possible number of links in the network. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel flow-based routing scheme, Minimum Active Link Routing (MALR), which aggregates arrival traffic on path composed by active links. Simulation results show that the MALR can reduce total power consumption of network without any packet losses.
