Performance Evaluation and Fairness Improvement of TCP over ATM GFR in FIFO-Based Mechanisms

摘要

Recently, the Guaranteed Frame Rate (GFR) service was proposed as a new service category of ATM to support non-realtime data applications and to provide the minimum rate guarantee. To keep the simplicity of GFR as much as possible and overcome defects of FIFO-based mechanisms, e propose a FIFO-based algorithm extending DFBA one to improve the fairness and provide the minimum rate guarantee for a wider range of Minimum Cell Rate (MCR).
