Multi timescale bandwidth profile and its application for burst-aware fairness

Abstract

We propose a resource sharing scheme that takes into account the traffic history over several predefined time scales and provides fair resource sharing considering the traffic history. Our concept builds on a simplified version of core-stateless resource sharing, where we only use a few Drop Precedences (DPs). For packet marking we introduce Multi timescale bandwidth profile. Additionally, we provide basic dimensioning concepts for the proposed schema and present its simulation based performance analysis.
