— We study a priority service where users are free to choose the priority of their traffic, but are charged accordingly by the network. We assume that each user chooses prioriti...
Recent research in compositional real-time systems has focused on determination of a component’s real-time interface parameters. An important objective in interface-parameter de...
In this paper, we present an analysis of self-organizing bandwidth sharing in priority-based medium access. For this purpose, the priority-based Access Game is introduced. Analysi...
ATM switches have to provide traffic management functions to meet the QoS requirements of different service categories. Among the traffic management functions we will focus on con...
In this paper we explore the packet starvation effect (PSE) that occurs in Ethernet controllers due to the unfairness of the CSMA/CD algorithm. The PSE causes some packets to expe...
