Abstract— In this paper we analyse a feedback system consisting of a finite buffer fluid queue and a responsive source. The source alternates between silence periods and active...
— In this paper, we present an analytical TCP model that takes into account of several issues that were ignored in the other existing models (such as those in [15], [19]), i.e., ...
ShareStreams (Scalable Hardware Architectures for Stream Schedulers) is a canonical architecture for realizing a range of scheduling disciplines. This paper discusses the design c...
