Abstract:We propose a novel on-line algorithm for shared Bandwidth and Buffer Allocation (BABA) in ATM networks. The objective of the BABA algorithm is to guarantee users' Quality of Service (QoS), while saving as much bandwidth and buffer space as possible to meet the needs of other potential network users. This algorithm proceeds incrementally on each link of a path, when a new user arrives to the network-or when a user terminates a connection. The algorithm uses gradient descent of a cost function which describes th… Show more
