IP packet routing algorithm

Hi all, I am working on an IP packet routing algorithm and intend to implement and test it using a linux box used as a router. Could anyone of you help me in adding my own algorithm for the same. ? Is it possible to register an routing algorithm similar to how a scheduling policy is registered. Please keep the email "binoyjayan@gmail.com" in CC as I am not a subscriber to this list. Thanks in advance, *Binoy Jayan*
