Video and voice traffic currently have the biggest share in the Internet. These applications require end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees for each flow. The packet schedulers in the routers play an important role in providing end-to-end QoS support in the Internet. It is important that the implementation of packet schedulers scale with the steady increase in the data rates and the number of flows. In our previous work we proposed Window Based Fair Aggregator (WBFA) to decrease the number of flows. WBFA aggregates the flows preserving their end-to-end delay bounds with a relatively small aggregation delay. In this paper we present a detailed simulation study to demonstrate the features of WBFA and its effect on the performance of fair packet schedulers.

Hardware design and implementation of packet fair queuing algorithms for the quality of service support in the high-speed internet

The increasing amount of real-time traffic carried over the Internet requires end-to-end quality of service (QoS) support. To this end, the QoS Schedulers, that are implemented in routers, assign the available bandwidth resources to packet flows according to their respective allocated rates. Packet Fair Queuing (PFQ) schedulers can provide fair service and low end-to-end delay bound to the traffic flows. However, they have higher implementation complexity compared to other algorithms, because of the require...
Connectionless traffic and variable packet size support in high speed network switches : improvements for the delay-limiter switch
Akçasoy, Alican; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
Quality of Service (QoS) support for real-time traffic is a critical issue in high speed networks. The previously proposed Delay-Limiter Switch working with the Framed-Deadline Scheduler (FDS) is a combined input-output queuing (CIOQ) packet switch that can provide end-to-end bandwidth and delay guarantees for connection-oriented traffic. The Delay-Limiter Switch works with fixed-size packets. It has a scalable architecture and can provide QoS support for connection-oriented real-time traffic in a low-compl...
Parallel and pipelined architectures for high speed ip packet forwarding
Erdem, Oğuzhan; Bazlamaçcı, Cüneyt Fehmi; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
A substantial increase in the number of internet users and the traffic volume bring new challenges for network router design. The current routers need to support higher link data rates and large number of line cards to accommodate the growth of the internet traffic, which necessitate an increase in physical space, power and memory use. Packet forwarding, which is one of the major tasks of a router, has been a performance bottleneck in internet infrastructure. In general, most of the packet forwarding algori...
CALMTV: A Cluster Based Application Layer Multicast Architecture for IPTV
Ozkardes, Merve; Schmidt, Şenan Ece (2013-12-13)
Multimedia applications over the Internet and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) gain a lot of attention. IPTV has a number of service requirements such as; high bandwidth, scalability, bounds on delay, jitter and channel zapping time. IP multicast, IP Multimedia System (IMS) Protocol and peer-to-peer (P2P) approaches are proposed for implementing IPTV. However, IP multicast requires all the routers in the core network to possess multicast capability, IMS does not easily scale and P2P cannot efficiently ut...
Application of binary PSO for public cloud resources allocation system of video on demand (VoD) services
Aygun, Betul; Günel Kılıç, Banu; ARICI, NURSAL; Coşar, Ahmet; Tuncsiper, Bedriye (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01)
Video streaming, whether on demand or live, has become one of the most popular internet applications. However, financial investments required for it is a severe problem since it needs more real time storage, higher data transfer and a significant amount of computation than other kinds of multimedia data. To tackle this problem, cloud computing, offering services without investing in hardware or software, emerges as a preferred technology. However, there are a large number of cloud service providers and they...
