We study an approach to quality-of-service (QoS) that offers end-users the choice between two service classes defined according to their level of transmission protection. The fully protected (FP) class offers end-users a guarantee of survivability in the c ...
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 ...
Packet Scale Rate Guarantee (PSRG) is a node model used by IETF for Expedited Forwarding, a priority service defined in the context of Differentiated Services. We review probabilistic performance bounds that apply to PSRG nodes, and improve a previous boun ...
We consider single-hop broadcast packet erasure channels (BPEC) with degraded message sets and instantaneous feedback regularly available from all receivers, and demonstrate that the main principles of the virtual-queue-based algorithms in [1], which were ...
The IEEE 802.15.4 standard is poised to become the global standard for low data rate, low energy consumption wireless sensor networks (WSN). By assigning the same sets of contention access parameters for all data frames and nodes, the contention access per ...
We consider the definition of the Expedited Forwarding Per-Hop Behaviour (EF PHB) as given in RFC 2598\ \cite{rfc2598}, 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-t ...
In this work, we consider four problems in the context of Internet traffic control. The first problem is to understand when and why a sender that implements an equation-based rate control would be TCP-friendly, or not—a sender is said to be TCP-friendly if ...
We consider single-hop broadcast packet erasure channels (BPEC) with degraded message sets and instantaneous feedback regularly available from all receivers, and demonstrate that the main principles of the virtual-queue-based algorithms in [1], which were ...
We survey recent advances in theories and models for Internet Quality of Service (QoS). We start with the theory of network calculus, which lays the foundation for support of deterministic performance guarantees in networks, and illustrate its applications ...
