Fair Bandwidth Sharing Between Unicast and Multicast Flows in Best-Effort Networks

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview This paper proposes a simple scheduler called SBQ (Service-Based Queuing) to share the bandwidth fairly between unicast and multicast flows according to a new definition of fairness referred as the inter-service fairness. The paper also describes a new active queue management mechanism called MFQ (Multicast Fair Queuing) to fairly share the allowed multicast bandwidth among competing flows in the multicast queue. The simulation results obtained for very heterogeneous sources and links characteristics suggest that, on the one hand, SBQ achieves the expected aggregated bandwidth sharing among unicast and multicast service, and on the other hand the multicast flows remain TCP-friendly.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
