Internet routers require buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. The buffers need to be fast, and so ideally they should be small enough to use fast memory technologie...
Famous rule-of-thumb states that a buffer sized at B = RTT × BW, where RTT is the average round trip time and BW is the bandwidth of output link is necessary in order to achieve ...
1 Routers need buffers to store and forward packets, especially when there is network congestion. With current memory technology, neither the SRAM nor the DRAM alone is suitabl...
The issue of router buffer sizing is still open and significant. Previous work either considers open-loop traffic or only analyzes persistent TCP flows. This paper differs in two ...
