Packet Scale Rate Guarantee (PSRG) is a generic node model which underlies the definition of Expedited Forwarding (EF) proposed in the context of Internet Differentiated Services. For the case of FIFO nodes, PSRG is equivalent to the well-understood concep ...
In this paper, we present our RT-CORBA implementation based on the synchronous active object concepts developed at the Networking Laboratory at the author's institute. We take and redefine several of the RT-CORBA considerations. The main goal is to show th ...
We propose Alternative Best-Effort (ABE), a novel service for IP networks, which retains the simplicity of the original Internet single class, best effort service, while providing low delay to interactive, adaptive applications. With ABE, applications choo ...
Forward Error Correction copes with packet losses, but at the expense of an increase of the end-to-end delay. By failing to take this into account, existing error control schemes for audio often lead to end-to-end delays larger than 150 ms, which has an im ...
The min-plus theory of greedy shapers has been developed after Cruz's results on the calculus of network delays. An example of greedy shaper is the buffered leaky bucket controller. The theory of greedy shapers establishes a number of properties; for examp ...
Real-time audio over the best effort Internet often suffers from packet loss. At this time, Forward Error Correction (FEC) seems to be an efficient way to attenuate the impact of loss. Nevertheless to ensure efficiency of FEC, the source rate must be conti ...
Real-time audio over the best effort Internet often suffers from packet loss. So far, Forward Error Correction (FEC) seems to be an efficient way to attenuate the impact of loss. Nevertheless to ensure efficiency of FEC, the source rate must be continuousl ...
We consider the definition of the Expedited Forwarding Per-Hop Behaviour (EF PHB) as given in RFC 2598, and its impact on worst case end-to-end delay jitter. On one hand, the definition in RFC 2598 can be used to predict extremely low end-to-end delay jitt ...
We consider the problem of full-duplex video transmission over the Internet, under real-time delay constraints. In this work we present the design of a complete communications system, whose salient features are: (a) a soft real-time transport protocol, who ...
A large number of products implementing aggregate buffering and scheduling mechanisms have been developed and deployed, and still more are under development. With the rapid increase in the demand for reliable end-to-end QoS solutions, it becomes increasing ...
