Dynamic Partitioning of Link Bandwidth in IP/MPLS Networks

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview Bandwidth allocation in the future multiservice global communication IP network presents a very interesting research issue. This paper presents the strategy of Dynamic Partitioning of link bandwidth in IP network. In the Dynamic Partitioning scheme the bandwidth of each link in the network is partitioned into two fractions, one for the low-priority data traffic, and one for the high-priority stream (real-time) traffic. The partitioning is defined by the partitioning parameter, which changes according to the traffic profile and intensity. An algorithm for the change of partitioning parameter is presented. The evaluation of the scheme is done based on a new metric, the connection utility, which is the measurement of the average end-user utility.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Circuit or packet, clean or dirty?

One of the secrets for success is an overall reduction in the number of hops from one point to another and the strict control of the traffic to give priority to all real time applications. I think we are about to see the emergence of a new and...

VoIP primer: How it works - and what the jargon means

An IP packet is formed when a router chops up a stream of digital information into manageable chunks. Any 'latency' - the delay in delivering the voice stream from the speaker to the listener - degrades the quality of the sound as does 'jitter' and...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change.
