A Cell Burst Scheduling for ATM Networking Part II: Implementation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The scheduling scheme of a switch affects the delay, throughput and fairness of a network and thus has a great impact on the quality of service (QoS). In Part I, we present a theoretical analysis of a burst scheduling for ATM switches and proved QoS guarantees on throughput and fairness of the applications. Here, we use simulation to demonstrate the superiority of the burst based weighted fair queueing over the non-burst version. Our simulation study is based on backbone and access subnetworks, which are common in the real world.

A Cell Burst Scheduling for ATM Networking Part I: Theory
Fair queueing is a useful queueing discipline for packet switching systems. It was developed in last decade and was aimed at the general packet switching systems with varying packet length. However, it is not suitable for use in the ATM networking, because the ATM cell length is very small and fixed, and so the scheduling scheme on a per cell basis isn’t practical. Here we introduce the burst a...
متن کاملDesign of a Weighted Fair Queueing Cell Scheduler for ATM Networks
Today, ATM networks are being used to carry bursty data traffic with large and highly variable rates, and burst sizes ranging from kilobytes to megabytes. Obtaining good statistical multiplexing performance for this kind of traffic requires much larger buffers than are needed for more predictable applications or for bursty data applications with more limited burst transmission rates. Large buff...
متن کاملCell Delay Variation and Burst Expansion in ATM Networks: Results from a Practical Study Using Fairisle
Current interest in cell delay variation in ATM networks arises from the need to provide guarantees on loss and delay for traac with real time constraints. This study uses the Fairisle ATM LAN to measure the CDV experienced by CBR and periodic, bursty sources when multiplexed with Bernoulli, VBR video and LAN interconnection traac, in a network of non-blocking ATM switches. We nd that higher bi...

Most application data units are too large to be carried in a single packet (or cell) and must be segmented for network delivery. To an application, the end-to-end delays and loss rate of its data units are much more relevant performance measures than ones specified for individual packets (or cells). The concept of a burst (or block) was introduced to represent a sequence of packets (or cells) t...
متن کاملATM via satellite: A framework and implementation
This paper describes an ATM-based satellite network, focusing on the networking (ATM) aspects of the design. The ATM requirements and the basic design of the network are outlined. In particular, a simple MAC layer is proposed in which ATM service classes are mapped onto MF-TDMA uplink access methods. The uplink access and resource allocation approaches based on this model are described in detai...
