Abstract
Schemes based on the tagging of packets have recently been proposed as a low-cost way to augment the single class best effort service model of the current Internet by including some kind of service discrimination. Such schemes have a number of attractive features, however, it is not clear exactly what kind of service they would provide to applications. Yet quantifying such service is very important to understand the benets and drawbacks of the different tagging schemes and of the mechanisms in each scheme (for example how much RIO contributes in the Assured scheme), and to tackle key performance and economic issues (e.g. the difference in tariff between different service classes would presumably depend on the difference in performance between the classes). Our goal in this paper is to obtain a quantitative description of the service provided by tagging schemes. Specically, we describe and solve simple analytic models of two recently proposed schemes, namely the Assured Service scheme ...
