Charge Allocation Concept for Fairer Resource Sharing in Best-Effort Network
Yaser Miaji, Suhaidi Hassan · 2010
The potential increase in the popularity of greedy software such as download accelerator software and greedy application such as P2P leads to a significant demands for reconstruction of the old fashion max-min fairness definition. Furthermore, these applications and software monopolize network bandwidth and hence result in magnificent degradation in the performance of real-time application such as VOIP, video conferencing and IPTV. This paper intends to introduce new fairness concept based on charge allocation in oppose of bandwidth allocation. This idea is discussed and analyzed conceptually and analytically with comparison to the famous Weighted Fair Queueing. The result shows impressive increases in fairness and protection of resource sharing. This research stimulates and redirects researcher attention to another dimension.
