Abstract:The estimation of the expected traffic loss ratio (workload loss ratio, WLR) is a key issue in provisioning Quality of Service in packet based communication networks. Despite of its importance, the stationary (long run) loss ratio in queueing analysis is usually estimated through other assessable quantities, typically based on the approximates of the buffer overflow probability. In this paper we define a calculus for communication networks which is suitable for workload loss estimation based on the original de… Show more
