Abstract

We consider modeling the statistical behavior of interactive and streaming traffics in High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) networks. Two important applications in these traffic categories are web-browsing (interactive service) and video streaming (streaming service). Web-browsing is characterized by its important sensitivity to delay. Video streaming on the other hand is less sensitive to delay, however, due to its large frame sizes, video traffic is more affected by the packet loss resulting from a limited buffer size at the base station. Taking these characteristics into account, we consider modeling the queuing delay probability density function (PDF) of the web-browsing traffic, and modeling the queuing buffer size distribution of video streaming traffic. Specifically, we show that the queuing delay of the web-browsing traffic follows an exponential distribution and that the queuing buffer size of video streaming traffic follows a weighted Weibull distribution. Model fitting based on simulated data is used to provide simple mathematical formulations for the different parameters that characterize the PDFs under consideration. The provided equations could be used, directly, in HSDPA network dimensioning and, as a reference, to satisfy a certain quality of service (QoS). Index Terms--HSDPA, network dimensioning, queuing buffer size modeling, queuing delay modeling, scheduling, video streaming, web-browsing.

3. ECI value generations in CSE-based distributors

Subjects

Abstract

In this letter we consider two efficient external control input (ECI) value generation methods for the controlled switching element (CSE)-based distributor [1], which is a new distributor structure that does not require the dummy address generation and extraction operations of the conventional distributors. The first method relies on the active packet counter and the ECI generator for ECI value generation, and the second method utilizes the intrinsic ECI generation property of the CSE-based reverse banyan network (RBN). The first method brings forth a flexible distributor structure, while the second method renders a very simple structure. In fact, the second method yields the so-called autonomous distributor [2], consisting only of a CSE-based RBN and a set of delays, which is perceived as the simplest among all available distributors. In addition, we introduce a modified version of the autonomous distributor which can speed up the connection-state setup process. Index Terms - ATM switch, packet concentrator, packet distributor.

Abstract

A survey conducted by the Distributed Networking Assocciates revealed that frame relay services grew significanlty from 1998 to 1999. The poll found out the users are satisfied with the cost benefits and networking stability that frame relays provide their data network, particularly in facilitating local area network traffic. However, frame relays' strong performance in the market is threatened by the emergence of other technologies such as asynchronous communications cells and Multi-protocol Label Switching standard, which is the base platform for Internet protocol virtual private networks, Frame relay has been the workhorse of VPN backbones, but it may give way to a new set of MPLS-based services. As an access service, frame relay continues to flourish. [...]

Abstract

Switches and routers used in internetworking differ in terms of functionality. Switches are multiport bridges optimized for Layer 2 forwarding and low cost while routers are optimized for specific tasks. Examples of specific tasks performed by routers are Layer 3 Internet protocol (IP) forwarding, buffering and queuing for wide area network links and IP protocol route management. Modern routers have more advantages over switches in terms of packet buffering, modularity, availability and redundancy and IP routing and route management., Layer 3 switches are not routers. AOL's network architect analyzes why this distinction is critical. Routers and switches have become faster and cheaper, thanks to advances in custom integrated circuit [...]

Abstract

Five local area network (LAN) switches from 3Com Corp, Bay Networks, Compaq Computer Corp, Extreme Networks and Packet Engines Inc were tested and compared in terms of plug and play, latency, interoperability, trunking and virtual LANs and distance. Results showed that Gigabit Ethernet works at one kilometer in all five Gigabit access switches, namely, SuperStack II Switch 3900, Accelar 1050, Compaq 5422, Summit 48 and PowerRail 1000. Furthermore, all the models have high throughputs due to their application specific integrated circuit-based switch designs., Can Ethernet really run at gigabit speeds? In the first of two reports, we test products with gigabit uplinks. If your LANs are 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps Ethernet - and most [...]

Abstract

Frame relay technology was first introduced in 1992 for efficient data transfer within local area networks. Its application has been growing steadily and demand is expected to plateau by 1998 and decline from then on. Nevertheless, income from its use will continue to grow until the year 2000. WorldCom Inc. increased its frame relay lines by 140% between 1996 and 1997 and its growth rate is 84% in 1998., Ripening packet data service can bear fruit for carriers, vendors and users. As 1997 draws to a close, frame relay is blossoming with new possibilities that result when a service [...]

Abstract

Switched Ethernet hubs have caught on with local-area network users (LAN). Ethernet switching hubs, like multiport bridges and routers, can support multiple, simultaneous connection paths with LAN segments. Unlike bridges and routers, however, Ethernet switching functions are performed on hardware instead of relying on software, and use a switching matrix to move packets between ports. The features of Ethernet switching hubs offered by various companies are compared., The Ethernet switching hub bandwagon has started rolling. But the most useful bells and whistles are proprietary. For the past five years, companies such as Alantec (San Jose, CA), Kalpana [...]
