A heuristic framework for source policing in ATM networks
Catherine Rosenberg, Bruno Laguë · IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking · 1994
Provides a heuristic framework for the analysis and design of source policing mechanisms for ATM networks. The authors first introduce a function called the time /spl epsiv/-quantile function associated with a source and a second function associated with the policing mechanism. These two characteristics when used in conjunction allow to obtain a useful design tool for source policing. The authors illustrate the use of this framework on source models as well as on real video sources. This framework leads also to a new and natural notion of the response time (called detection time) of the policing mechanism and show how the heuristic framework allows for a quick estimation of this detection time.>
