Abstract

Requirements for a Good Scheme 1. Fast convergence to stability 2. Fast convergence to fairness 3. Good for bursty traffic 4. Predictable performance: No local minima 5. Stable rates ⇒ TCP Friendly (IETF feedback) 6. Easy to deploy: 1. Small number of parameters 2. Easy to set parameters 3. Parameters applicable to a wide range of configurations (number of sources), link speeds, traffic types. 5 IEEE 802.1 Meeting Nov 14, 2006 Raj Jain Convergence to Stability! Convergence to the desired queue length in a few ms =/=> Convergence of user rates. User rates may still be off from the desired fair values. May even have multiple stable states.
