We recognize two trends in router design: increasing pressure to extend the set of services provided by the router and increasing diversity in the hardware components used to cons...
−Buffered multistage interconnection networks offer one of the most scalable and cost-effective approaches to building high capacity routers. Unfortunately, the performance of su...
—To provide flexibility in deploying new protocols and services, general-purpose processing engines are being placed in the datapath of routers. Such network processors are typi...
Packet scheduling and queue management strategies are key issues of DiffServ per-hop behaviours. This paper proposes a queue management system that, in conjunction with scheduling ...
