Abstract
This paper is principally concerned with resource allocation for connections tolerating statistical qualityof service #QoS# guarantees in a public wide-area ATM network. Our aim is to sketch a framework, based on e#ective bandwidths, for call admission schemes that are sensitivetoindividual QoS requirements and account for statistical multiplexing. We begin by describing recent results approximating the e#ective bandwidth required by heterogeneous streams sharing bu#ered links, including results for the packetized generalized processor sharing service discipline. Extensions to networks follow via the concept of decoupling bandwidths - motivated by a study of the input-output properties of queues. Based on these results we claim that networks with su#cient routing diversity will inherently satisfy nodal decoupling. We then discuss on-line methods for estimating the e#ective bandwidth of a connection. Using this type of tra#c monitoring we propose an approach to usage parameter ...
