چکیده

The current challenge for telecommunication networks is to offer new types of services. To achieve this, somehow traffic has to be conditioned. A spacer is a token bucket traffic conditioner that reshapes flows according to a periodic profile. Packets are delayed until they can be inserted according to this profile. This short paper concentrates on packet discard by overflow in the spacer. An upper bound for the overflow probability is given, valid even when it is fully loaded. It shows the ratio of discarded packets is of the same order than the ratio of out-of-profile packets. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Self-Similar Traffic and Upper Bounds to Buffer-Overflow Probability in an ATM Queue

From real measurements in high-speed communications networks, it was recently shown that network traffic may demonstrate properties of long-range dependency peculiar to the self-similar stochastic process. It was also shown by measurements that with increasing buffer capacity, the resulting cell loss is not reduced exponentially fast, as it is predicted by queueing theory applied to traditional...

Overflow Probability in an ATM Queue with Self-Similar Input Traffic

Real measurements in high-speed communications networks have recently shown that traffic may demonstrate properties of long-range dependency peculiar to self-similar stochastic processes. Measurements have also shown that, with increasing buffer capacity, the resulting cell loss is not reduced exponentially fast as it is predicted by Markov-model-based queueing theory but, in contrast, decrease...

Asymptotic Buffer Overflow Probabilities in Multiclass Multiplexers , Part I : The GPS Policy 1 Dimitris

In this paper and its sequel [BPT96] we consider a multiclass multiplexer, with segregated buffers for each type of traffic. Under specific scheduling policies for sharing bandwidth, we seek the asymptotic (as the buffer size goes to infinity) tail of the buffer overflow probability for each buffer. We assume dependent arrival and service processes as it is usually the case in models of bursty ...

On the Impact of Long-Range-Dependent Traffic in Dimensioning ATM Network Buffer

Recent measurements of packet networks have shown that packet traffic exhibits long-range-dependent property. Studies have also discovered that this property is not adequately captured by the conventional Markov traffic models and often yields queueing behavior such as heavy-tailed or subexponential queue length distribution. These findings have led to the implication that long-range-dependent ...

Asymptotic Buffer Overflow Probabilities in Multiclass Multiplexers: An Optimal Control Approach

We consider a multiclass multiplexer with support for multiple service classes and dedicated buffers for each service class. Under specific scheduling policies for sharing bandwidth among these classes, we seek the asymptotic (as the buffer size goes to infinity) tail of the buffer overflow probability for each dedicated buffer. We assume dependent arrival and service processes as is usually th...
