We consider a connection-level model proposed by Massoulié and Roberts for bandwidth sharing among file transfer flows in communication network. study weighted proportionally fair policies establish explicit-form bounds on the sum of expected numbers different routes heavy traffic. The are linear number critically loaded links network, they hold class phase-type file-size distributions; that is...

Up to now, more and more people use Internet storage services as a new way of sharing. File sharing by a distributed storage system is quite different from a specific sharing application like BitTorrent. And as large file sharing becomes popular, the data transmission rate takes the place of the response delay to be the major factor influencing user experience. This paper introduces strategies ...

This paper presents a framework for network bandwidth sharing to transport rate-adaptive packet video using feedback. We show how a weight-based bandwidth sharing policy can be used to allocated network bandwidth among competing video connections and design a feedback control algorithm using the available bit rate (ABR) ow control mechanism. A novel video source rate adaptation algorithm is int...

Predictably sharing the network is critical to achieving high utilization in the datacenter. Past work has focussed on providing bandwidth to endpoints, but often we want to allocate resources among multi-node services. In this paper, we present Parley, which provides service-centric minimum bandwidth guarantees, which can be composed hierarchically. Parley also supports service-centric weighte...

Generalized Processor Sharing (GPS) is an important scheduling discipline because it enables bandwidth sharing with work conservation and traffic isolation properties. While Markov Modulated Fluid Processes (MMFP) capture the dynamics of the sources, the analysis of such sources with a GPS server is difficult because of the large state space. In this paper, we study a multi-queue GPS system wit...

This paper proposes an adaptive queue management scheme (adaptive RED) to improve Random Early Detection (RED) on restraining non-responsive flows. Due to a lack of flow control mechanism, non-responsive flows can starve responsive flows for buffer and bandwidth at the gateway. In order to solve the disproportionate resource problem, RED framework is modified in this way: on detecting when the ...
