The Join-Biased-Queue Rule and Its Application to Routing in Computer Communication Networks
Tak-Shing Peter Yum, Moshe Schwartz · IRE Transactions on Communications Systems · 1981
A routing rule similar in nature to delta-routing [8] is studied in this paper. The approach is to superimpose, local adaptivity on top of a fixed traffic flow distribution. The fixed flow distribution we choose is obtained from the best stochastic (BS) rule [3]. The adaptive part is called the join-biased-queue (JBQ) rule. The resultant JBQ-BS rule is analyzed on small networks and is shown to provide 10-27 percent delay improvement over the BS rule.
