In order to respond to routing queries, the entities of the network, nammedrouters, require to have a knowledge concerning the topology of the network, thisknowledge is called routing table. The network is modeled by a graph in whichnodes represent routers and edges represent communication links between nodes.This thesis focuses on routing tables computation in a distributed model. In thismodel, computations are done by a set of process placed on nodes. Every processhas for objective to compute the routing table of the node on which he is placed.To perform this computation, processes have to communicate with each other. Inlarge scale network, in the case of a distributed computation, maintaining routingtables up to date can be costly in terms of communication. This thesis focuses mainlyon the problem of communication cost reduction. One of the solution we proposeis to reduce routing tables size which allow to reduce communication cost. In thecentralised model this strategy is well known under the name of compact routing.This thesis presents in particular a distributed compact routing algorithm that allowsto reduce significantly the communication costs in networks like Internet, i.e. theautonomous systems network and others networks that present scale-free properties.This thesis also contains an experimental study of several distributed compact routingalgorithms. Finally, some problems linked to network dynamicity are addressed.More precisely, the problem of network deconnexion during a shortest path treecomputation with auto-stabilisation guaranties, together with a study of the impactof several edges or nodes deletion on the state of the routing tables.
