I want to express the following:

  1. We made an algorithm
  2. The algorithm can be applicable to A system.
  3. The A system can have any protocols.

Is the following sentence grammatically correct?

We made an algorithm applicable to A system which routing protocol ever it has.

    No, it is not correct. Our algorithm is applicable to System A regardless of the protocol being used. Or Our algorithm for System A is protocol independent. – Jim Aug 08 '17 at 04:53
  • Thank you. The second sentence is very concise. May I ask one more question? "Our algorithm is applicable to System A regardless of which kind of protocol is used." is also correct? – Danny_Kim Aug 08 '17 at 04:55
  • @Danny_Kim - yes. 'which kind of' is quite correct. – whanrott Aug 08 '17 at 13:03

    @Jim But equally, Our algorithm is applicable to System A, whichever/whatever the protocol being used. – Araucaria - Him Aug 08 '17 at 16:41
  • @Araucaria - That fallutes lower in my book. – Jim Aug 08 '17 at 17:34

Possible duplicate of this question. "What" should be used in this case as there are no choices presented, unless the description of 'A system' and its possible 'routing protocols' are discussed before the sentence.
