Abstract

Existing fair-queuing algorithms use complicated flow management mechanisms, thus making them expensive to deploy in current high-bandwidth networks. In this paper we propose a scalable SCORE (stateless core) approach to provide fair bandwidth sharing for a traffic environment composed of TCP and UDP flows. At an edge router, the arrival rates of each flow are estimated, each packet then being labelled with this estimate. The outgoing link’s fair share at a router is estimated based on UDP traffic. Probabilistic dropping is used to regulate those flows that send more than the fair share. At a core router, all the functions performed by an edge router are repeated, excluding the flow rate estimation. The simulation results show that the degree of fairness achieved by the proposed solution is comparable to that of other algorithms, but with a lower implementation cost.
