In this paper, we propose an efficient and simple fair queuing algorithm, called new starting potential fair queuing (NSPFQ), which has O(1) complexity for virtual time computation and also has good delay and fairness properties. NSPFQ introduces a simpler virtual time recalibration method as it follows a rate-proportional property. The NSPFQ algorithm recalibrates the system virtual time to the minimum virtual start time among all possible virtual start times for head-of-line packets in backlogged sessions. Through analysis and simulation, we show that the proposed algorithm has good delay and fairness properties. We also propose a hardware implementation framework for the scheduling algorithm.

Existing flash storage devices such as universal flash storage and solid state disk support command queuing to improve storage I/O bandwidth. Command queuing allows multiple read/write requests to be pending in a device queue. Because multi-channel and multi-way architecture of flash storage devices can handle multiple requests simultaneously, command queuing is an indispensable technique for utilizing parallel architecture. However, command queuing can be harmful to the latency of fsync system call, which is critical to application responsiveness. We propose a dynamic queue depth adaptation technique, which reduces the queue depth if user application is expected to send fsync calls. Experiments show that the proposed technique reduces the fsync latency by 79% on average compared to the original scheme.

In a packet switching network, congestion is unavoidable and affects the quality of real-time traffic with such problems as delay and packet loss. Packet fair queuing (PFQ) algorithms are well-known solutions for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee by packet scheduling. Our approach is different from previous algorithms in that it uses hardware time achieved by sampling a counter triggered by a periodic clock signal. This clock signal can be provided to all the modules of a routing system to get synchronization. In this architecture, a variant of the PFQ algorithm, called digitized delay queuing (DDQ), can be distributed on many line interface modules. We derive the delay bounds in a single processor system and in a distributed architecture. The definition of traffic contribution improves the simplicity of the mathematical models. The effect of different time between modules in a distributed architecture is the key idea for understanding the delay behavior of a routing system. The number of bins required for the DDQ algorithm is also derived to make the system configuration clear. The analytical models developed in this paper form the basis of improvement and application to a combined input and output queuing (CIOQ) router architecture for a higher speed QoS network.

WFQ(Weighted Fair Queuing)은 지연이나 공평성의 특성에 있어서 이상적인 트래픽 스케줄링 알고리즘으로 간주되었다. N세션에 서비스를 제공하는 WFQ 스케줄러의 스케줄링 연산은 각 패킷 전송 시간당 O(n)의 계산 복잡도를 가지며, 구현 또한 복잡하다. Self-Clocked Fair Queuing과 같은 WFQ 알고리즘의 구현을 간단히 하고자 하는 노력은 지연범위나 특성에 영향을 주게 되어 다양한 트래픽이 제공되는 경우 각 트래픽의 공평성을 지원해주지 못한다. 그러므로 지연이나 지연 변이 측면에서 공평성을 지원하고 구현상의 계산 복잡도를 줄인 스케줄링 알고리즘이 필요하게 되었다. ATM 다중화기의 셀 스케줄링 알고리즘 역시, ATM의 특성상 다양한 특성의 서비스를 제공하기 위해서, 다양한 특성의 트래픽에 대한 공평성을 제공하는 새로운 알고리즘의 연구가 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 ATM 스위치 내의 다중화기에서 사용되는 새로운 셀 스케줄링 알고리즘을 제안하고 실험을 통해 이 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하고자 한다. 이 알고리즘은 여러 개의 우선 순위 큐를 갖고, 각 우선순위 큐마다 스케줄링 연산이 O(1)의 계산 복잡도를 갖는 Parallel Priority Queuing 알고리즘이다.

We design and implement a RTT (Round Trip Time) based TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) for USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network). We adopt a basic update algorithm for window size from FAST TCP that uses the queuing delay at link as the congestion measure. The designed TCP estimates the queuing delay at link from the measured RTT in the network layer, and updates the window size based on the estimated queuing delay. The designed TCP allows to utilize the full capacity of USN links and avoids the waste of the given link capacity that is common without the flow control in the transport layer. The experiment results show that the window size of the sender converges within a small range of variations without any packet loss, and verify the stability and performance of the designed TCP.

This paper presents the investigation results of a research on how engineers can analyze the economic effect of the ETCS(Electronic Toll Collection System) installed to minimize the vehicle delays on freeway tollgates during toll payments. This research considered this economic effect to occur in the form of vehicle passing time reductions at the ETCS, and the multi-service queuing theory was applied to estimate these values. This research found: 1) When vehicles approaching tollgates show Poisson distribution and the service time of the ETCS shows Exponential distribution, the multi-service queuing theory would be applicable for estimating vehicle passing times at toll-gates, 2) Despite the ETCS placement, exit sections of tollgates give a greater reduction of vehicle passing times than entering sections due to more delays at conventional toll payments, and 3)The ETCS would not guarantee vehicle passing time reductions all the time, because in such a case as many vehicles were queuing at the ETCS, the total delay level for a toll gate would increase greatly. In addition, in order to examine the accuracy of the estimated vehicle passing values, this research compared the values from the multi-service queuing theory with the observed values from a set of field survey values at freeway toll-gates, and found that the two values were in a good agreement with a very low error range of 1-3 seconds per vehicle. Based on this result, the multi-service queuing theory was recommended for practice.

In this paper, we develop a spatiotemporal model to analysis of cellular user in underlay D2D communication by using stochastic geometry and queuing theory. Firstly, by exploring stochastic geometry to model the user locations, we derive the probability that the SINR of cellular user in a predefined interval, which constrains the corresponding transmission rate of cellular user. Secondly, in contrast to the previous studies with full traffic models, we employ queueing theory to evaluate the performance parameters of dynamic traffic model and formulate the cellular user transmission mechanism as a M/G/1 queuing model. In the derivation, Embedded Markov chain is introduced to depict the stationary distribution of cellular user queue status. Thirdly, the expressions of performance metrics in terms of mean queue length, mean throughput, mean delay and mean dropping probability are obtained, respectively. Simulation results show the validity and rationality of the theoretical analysis under different channel conditions.

RSVP-capable router supporting guaranteed services on the internet generally uses a packet scheduler based on the Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) algorithm to secure required qualities of traffic flows. A RSVP-capable router based on the LOFQ (Latency optimized fair queuing) algorithm had been proposed to improve the performance of the WFQ-based RSVP-router, but it required not only the RESV message to be expanded but also its performance could be evaluated only through simulation. This paper proposed a LOFQ based RSVP-capable router using the conventional RESV message and developed an algorithm to analyze the performance of the LOFQ based RSVP-capable routers. The performance evaluation using the developed algorithm showed that in terms of performance improvement the proposed router is inferior to the one using the expanded RESV message under a small packet size, but on the range of a large packet size both routers provide the same improvement.

In order to maximize the throughput and provide the fairness between users in MIMO-OFDM system, FATM(fairness-aware throughput maximization) scheduling algorithm was proposed. In this paper, a QoS-aware scheduling algorithms for MINO-OFDM system are proposed, each of which is based on FATM. These scheduling algorithms aim to satisfy the different service requirements of various service classes. Three proposed QoS scheduling algorithms called SPQ (Strict Priority Queueing), DCBQ (Delay Constraint Based Queuing), HDCBQ (Hybrid Delay Constraint Based Queuing) are compared through computer simulations. It is shown that HDCBQ algorithm outperforms other algorithms in satisfying different requirements of various service classes.

This paper proposes a continuous-time queuing model of a shared-buffer packet switch and an approximate algorithm. N arrival processes have heterogeneous busty traffic characteristics. The arrival processes are modeled by Coxian distribution with order 2 that is equivalent to Interruped Poisson Process. The service time is modeled by Erlang distribution with r stages. First the approximate algorithm performs the aggregation of N arrival processes as a single state variable. Next the algorithm discompose the queuing system into N subsystems which are represented by aggregated state variables. And the balance equations based on these aggregated state variables are solved for by iterative method. Finally the algorithm is validated by comparing the results with those of simulation.
