We propose a process calculus which explicitly models routing in a distributed computer network. We define a model which consists of a network of routers where the topology of routers is fixed. The calculus has three syntactic categories namely processes, nodes and systems. Processes reside in nodes which are connected to a specific routers which forms a system. Upon creation of new nodes, the routing tables are updated using flooding method. We show that the proposed routing calculi is reduction equivalent to its specification asynchronous distributed pi-calculus (ADpi). We believe that such modeling helps in prototyping the distributed routing algorithms.
