Joint Smoothing and Source Rate Selection for Guaranteed Service Networks
We consider the transmission of variable bit rate (VBR) video over a network offering a guaranteed service such as ATM VBR or the guaranteed service of the IETF. The guaranteed service requires that the flow accepted by the network has to be conforming with a traffic envelope . In this context, the output of the video encoder is constrained by the traffic envelope defined at the network entry p...
متن کاملOptimal Allocation of Rates in Guaranteed Service Networks
We examine the problem of rate allocation in Guaranteed Services networks by assigning a cost corresponding to a rate, and examining least cost allocations. We show that the common algorithm of allocating the same rate to a connection on all links along its path (called the Identical Rates algorithm henceforth) is, indeed, a least cost allocation in many situations of interest. This finding pro...
متن کاملOptimal Smoothing for Pathwise Adjoints
We propose an optimal smoothing parametrization for gradient estimators of expectations of discontinuous functions. The reparametrization trick with discontinuous functions gives gradient estimators for discrete random variables [5, 8, 13] and makes smoothing applicable in the machine learning context (e.g. variational inference and stochastic neural networks [11, 1, 12, 6]). Our approach is ba...
متن کاملService Disciplines for Guaranteed Performance Service in Packet-Switching Networks
While today’s computer networks support only best-effort service, future packet-switching integrated-services networks will have to support real-time communication services that allow clients to transport information with performance guarantees expressed in terms of delay, delay jitter, throughput, and loss rate. An important issue in providing guaranteed performance service is the choice of th...
متن کاملOptimal Pricing for Integrated-Services Networks with Guaranteed Quality of Service
Integrating multiple services into a single network is becoming increasingly common in today's telecommunications industry. Driven by the emergence of new applications, many of these services will be offered with guaranteed quality of service. While there are extensive studies of the engineering problems of designing integrated-services networks with guaranteed quality of service, related econo...
