Generalized weighted fairness criterion: formulation and application on prioritized ABR service
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a generalized fairness criterion referred to as the Generalized Weighted Fairness Criterion (GWFC) for flow control on ABR service is presented. Within the GWFC framework, a weight is assigned to each ABR connection and bandwidth is allocated to it in proportion to the corresponding weight. The GWFC can generalize fairness sub-criteria for prioritized services, and in particular, subsume the Max-Min criterion as a uni-weight fairness criterion. Two weighted fairness sub-criteria are introduced and their performance on bandwidth allocation will be presented and compared with that of the Max-Min criterion.

Deficit Round Robin with Fragmentation Scheduling to Achieve Generalized Weighted Fairness for Resource Allocation in IEEE 802.16e Mobile WiMAX Networks
Deficit Round Robin (DRR) is a fair packet-based scheduling discipline commonly used in wired networks where link capacities do not change with time. However, in wireless networks, especially wireless broadband networks, i.e., IEEE 802.16e Mobile WiMAX, there are two main considerations violate the packet-based service concept for DRR. First, the resources are allocated per Mobile WiMAX frame. ...
متن کاملA Simple ABR Switch Algorithm for the Weighted Max - Min Fairness Policy *
An important concept in the A B R service model is the minimum cell rate ( M C R ) guarantee as well as the peak cell rate (PCR) constraint for each A B R virtual connection. Due to the M C R and P C R requirements, the well-known max-min fairness policy is not suficient to determine the fair rate allocation in the ABR service model. W e present the weighted max-min ( W M M ) fairness policy, w...
متن کاملPricing Bandwidth for ABR Rate Control and Multimedia Tra c
Multimedia applications are expected to play a more prevalent role in integrated service networks. One method of e ciently transmitting such tra c uses the ABR service class. However, rate control for this class becomes more di cult due to the bursty and somewhat unpredictable behavior of multimedia tra c. This paper presents a microeconomic-based ABR rate control technique that models the netw...

In this paper, we present a novel approach for realizing adaptive QoS control in the Internet called the adaptive load service (ALS). ALS was designed in a similar fashion to the available bit rate service (ABR) proposed for ATM. That is, the senders transmit control messages indicating their requirements, intermediate routers adjust the indicated values in accordance with their available resou...
