Cell scheduler for non-real-time traffic with service fairness in ATM networks

[[abstract]]A novel cell scheduling scheme called buffer minimized and service fairness (BMSF) is presented to schedule non-real-time (NRT) services in ATM networks. BMSF attains satisfactory performances with respect to maximum buffer size requirement, cell loss ratio (CLR), and service fairness regarding both maximum buffer size and cell waiting delay criteria. Simulation results show that BMSF simultaneously performs better than some prominent schemes in terms of these criteria.[[fileno]]2030201010007[[department]]資訊工程學
