Abstract

While the international standards bodies recommend the dual leaky buckets for the traffic specification for VBR service, video traffic shows burstiness in multiple time-scales. In order to fill this gap between the current standards and real traffic characteristics, we present a standard-compatible traffic parameter selection method based on the notion of a critical time scale (CTS). Since the defined algorithm minimizes the required link capacity under a maximum delay constraint, it could be used as a benchmark even when it can not be implemented easily. Simulation results with compressed video traces demonstrate the efficiency of the defined traffic parameter selection algorithm in resource allocation.

인터넷 및 통신망 국제표준 단체들은 자신들의 망에서 서비스 품질 보장형 기능을 제공하기 위한 방안으로써 공통적으로 리키버킷에 의한 입력 트래픽 정의 방법을 채택하고 있다. 반면, 그동안 연구결과는 멀티미디어 트래픽의 버스트특성이 시간적으로 광범위한 준위에 걸쳐 있음을 확인하고 있다. 이러한 두개의 상반되는 현실을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 임계 시준위 개념을 사용한 표준적 트래픽 기술자계산 방법을 제안하고 이를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석하였다. 제안된 알고리듬은 지연치가 주어진 상태에서 최상의 성능을 얻음을 수학적으로 증명하였고, 실제 시스템 응용에 대하여 제안하였다.
