Dynamic Internet Congestion with Bursts
- Computer ScienceHiPC

Analysis and Simulation of a Fair Queueing Algorithm
- Computer ScienceSIGCOMM

It is found that fair queueing provides several important advantages over the usual first-come-first-serve queueing algorithm: fair allocation of bandwidth, lower delay for sources using less than their full share of bandwidth and protection from ill-behaved sources.

This paper extends the results presented by Chlamtac, Farago, Zhang, and Fumagalli by obtaining a smaller upper bound of end-to-end delay in connection-oriented networks under the same source rate condition and investigates the tightness of this upper bound and proves that it is tight for multipoint- to-point trees.
