— Packet buffers in router/switch interfaces constitute a central element of packet networks. The appropriate sizing of these buffers is an important and open research problem. M...
We revisit the question of how much buffer an IP router should allocate for its Droptail FIFO link. For a long time, setting the buffer size to the bitrate-delay product has been ...

All Internet routers contain buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. Today, the size of the buffers is determined by the dynamics of TCP’s congestion control algor...
Most existing criteria [3], [5], [8] for sizing router buffers rely on explicit formulation of the relationship between buffer size and characteristics of Internet traffic. However...
— In recent years, issues regarding the behavior of TCP in high-speed and long-distance networks have been extensively addressed in the networking research community, both becaus...
