Abstract: This study shows a new approach to minimize delay in networks. The routing algorithm guarantees a loss-free delivery of data packets from congested sources and a deterministic bound on the route length in arbitrary topology networks. This research shows that routing decisions using Local Greedy method are not optimal and the performance of the algorithm can be improved substantially by using new look-ahead measures. The contribution of this study is to propose a new metrics to minimize delay in networks. In minimum proximity algorithm the time taken to set routing priority is less when compared to local greedy algorithm. The objective is to minimize the average packet delay. The performance is studied computationally for various networks topologies under static traffic model. In all the experiments the Minimum Proximity algorithm shows better results.
