Abstract:A finite-buffered banyan network analysis technique designed to model networks at high traffic loads is presented. The technique specially models two states of the network queues: queue empty and queue congested (roughly, zero or one slots free). A congested queue tends to stay congested because packets bound for the queue accumulate in the previous stage. The expected duration of this state is computed using a probabilistic model of a switching module feeding the congested queue. A technique for finding a low… Show more
“…An advantage of the model is that a queue's stationary distribution can be found in closed form [8]. (Iteration is still required to compute expected congestion duration and to solve the entire network.)…”
