Drop Strategies and Queuing Mechanisms for Differentiation

نویسنده

چکیده

The Internet architecture is currently being extended to support differentiated services. These extensions allow assignment of different levels of drop precedence to IP packets. With precedence levels, isolated forwarding of in profile packets can be offered. When offering such differentiated forwarding, it is important that the utilization of congested links does not get degraded due to effects of providing the differentiation. Multiple levels of drop precedence can be provided with queuing mechanisms. We show, through simulations, that the drop strategy used by queuing mechanisms providing differentiation can affect link utilization and the loss-rate at congested links. When excess packets are dropped as they arrive, link utilization is less and loss-rate higher than when excess packets are dropped from within the queue. By dropping packets from within the queue, similar loss-rate and link utilization can be achieved as without differentiation.

Early Fair Drop : A New Bu er Management

In this paper, we investigate the eeectiveness of packet-drop mechanisms in conjunction with fair queuing link scheduling and hierarchical link sharing. Under fair queuing, the link share of a ow changes dynamically due to the arrivals and departures of ows and their bursts. This phenomenon becomes more pronounced in the case of hierarchical link sharing. Packet-drop mechanisms play an integral...

Delay Differentiation without Rate Tinkering

Link buffering is a key element in packet-switched networks to absorb temporary traffic bursts without excessive dropping. The resulting queuing delay is a critical performance factor. Research on buffer management typically studies differentiated buffer allocation to control forwarding rates or buffer size management to control the overall queuing delay. On the other hand, delay differentiatio...

An Enhanced RED-Based Scheme for Differentiated Loss Guarantees

Recently, researchers have explored to provide a queue management scheme with differentiated loss guarantees for the future Internet. The Bounded Random Drop (BRD), known as the best existing scheme, is one of such efforts which guarantees strong loss differentiation to the level of traffic in the different service classes. Even though BRD has several benefits such as low complexities and good ...
