Abstract

To keep simplicity that needs for GFR service and improve fairness of FIFO based buffer management algorithm, we propose a new LBO threshold decision mechanism. Proposed mechanism uses dynamic threshold that are adjusted according to the sum of active VC's weight. We reformed DT-DFBA(Differential Threshold-Differential Fair Buffer Allocation) algorithm using proposed LBO threshold decision mechanism with existing DFBA algorithm.

FIFO 기반 버퍼관리 알고리즘의 공평성 향상과 단순성을 유지하기 위해 새로운 LBO threshold 결정 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 활성화된 각 VC의 가중치 합에 따라 LBO를 차별적으로 계산하여 동적으로 적용한다. 이러한 LBO 설정 메커니즘을 DFBA 알고리즘에 적용한 DT-DFBA(Differential Threshold-Differential Fair Buffer Allocation)을 구현하고 실험을 통하여 성능을 평가하였다.
