Techniques for Dynamic and Prioritized Bandwidth Allocation On Incoming Links
Saâd Biaz · 2007
We consider the problem of prioritizing the incoming TCP traffic on a link. The objective is to allocate dynamically a specific share of the incoming link bandwidth to a high priority TCP traffic. However, if the high priority TCP traffic does not fully use this dedicated share, the low priority TCP traffic may take advantage of the unused bandwidth. Up to today, a network administrator has no control on the incoming traffic if the network service does not provide some QoS mechanisms.
