Renegotiation Based Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation For Selfsimilar Vbr Traffic, Zafer Sahinoglu Jan 2002

Renegotiation Based Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation For Selfsimilar Vbr Traffic, Zafer Sahinoglu

Dissertations

The provision of QoS to applications traffic depends heavily on how different traffic types are categorized and classified, and how the prioritization of these applications are managed. Bandwidth is the most scarce network resource. Therefore, there is a need for a method or system that distributes an available bandwidth in a network among different applications in such a way that each class or type of traffic receives their constraint QoS requirements.

In this dissertation, a new renegotiation based dynamic resource allocation method for variable bit rate (VBR) traffic is presented. First, pros and cons of available off-line methods that are …


Scheduling Algorithms For High-Speed Switches, Jinhui Li May 2001

Scheduling Algorithms For High-Speed Switches, Jinhui Li

Dissertations

The virtual output queued (VOQ) switching architecture was adopted for high speed switch implementation owing to its scalability and high throughput. An ideal VOQ algorithm should provide Quality of Service (QoS) with low complexity. However, none of the existing algorithms can meet these requirements.

Several algorithms for VOQ switches are introduced in this dissertation in order to improve upon existing algorithms in terms of implementation or QoS features. Initially, the earliest due date first matching (EDDFM) algorithm, which is stable for both uniform and non-uniform traffic patterns, is proposed. EDDFM has lower probability of cell overdue than other existing maximum …


Design And Analysis Of A Scalable Terabit Multicast Packet Switch : Architecture And Scheduling Algorithms, Feihong Chen May 2000

Design And Analysis Of A Scalable Terabit Multicast Packet Switch : Architecture And Scheduling Algorithms, Feihong Chen

Dissertations

Internet growth and success not only open a primary route of information exchange for millions of people around the world, but also create unprecedented demand for core network capacity. Existing switches/routers, due to the bottleneck from either switch architecture or arbitration complexity, can reach a capacity on the order of gigabits per second, but few of them are scalable to large capacity of terabits per second.

In this dissertation, we propose three novel switch architectures with cooperated scheduling algorithms to design a terabit backbone switch/router which is able to deliver large capacity, multicasting, and high performance along with Quality of …
