Communication Network Pedigree Based on DEMATEL

In order to increase the benefit of communication network management and solve the problem that each network resource acts its own way without mutual coordination, the concept of communication network pedigree was put forward by introducing the service carrying and network correlation relation. According to system/integrant analysis theory, the arithmetic means of communication network pedigree was presented based on method of DEMATE (decision making trial and evaluation laboratory). To show the application of proposed network pedigree, for networks (reflecting the network system to networks) and network (reflecting the network to running indicators), the integrated effect degree, center degree and cause degree were found, the causality figures were presented and the network carrying and correlation relation were dissected. The test results indicate the validity of the arithmetic.
