Achieving per-flow Queueing Performance without a per-flow Queue

Recent studies have shown that suitably-designed packet discard policies can dramatically improve the performance of fair queueing mechanisms in internet routers. The Queue State Deficit Round Robin algorithm (QSDRR) preferentially discards from long queues, but introduces hysteresis into the discard policy to minimize synchronization among TCP flows. QSDRR provides higher throughput and much b...
