An Analytical Model of a New Packet Marking Algorithm for TCP Flows
Overview In Differentiated Services networks, packets may receive a different treatment according to their Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) label. As a consequence, packet marking schemes can be devised to differentiate packets belonging to a same TCP flow, with the goal of improving the experienced performance. This paper presents an analytical model for an adaptive packet marking scheme proposed in the previous work. The model combines three specific sub-models aimed at describing the TCP sources aggregate, the marker, and the network status. Preliminary simulative results show quite accurate predictions for throughput and average queue occupancy. Besides, the research suggests new interesting guidelines to model queues fed by TCP traffic.
