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 ...

In the past two years, several papers have proposed rules that suggest two to five orders of magnitude reduction in Internet core router buffers. Others present scenarios where bu...
Keeping router buffering low helps minimise delay (as well as keeping router costs low), whilst increasing buffering minimises loss. This is a trade-off for which there is no sing...
This paper investigates the suitability of emerging tiled-architectures, equipped with low-latency on-chip networks, for high-performance network routing. In this paper, we presen...

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...
