1. A method comprising:
- receiving a graph representing a network comprising a plurality of nodes, the plurality of nodes comprising one or more asymmetric switches, each asymmetric switch having defined degree connectivity between one or more pairs of degrees of the asymmetric switch;
transforming the graph to yield a transformed graph that accounts for the one or more asymmetric switches; and
applying a routing process to the transformed graph to yield one or more paths through the network.

Abstract
According to particular embodiments, determining paths in a network with asymmetric switches includes receiving a graph representing the network. Each asymmetric switch has defined degree connectivity between one or more pairs of degrees of the asymmetric switch. The graph is transformed to yield a transformed graph that accounts for the asymmetric switches. A routing process is applied to the transformed graph to yield one or more paths through the network.
