Bandwidth Resource Allocation

A data network may not be stable at the connection level under some unfair bandwidth allocation policies, even when the normal offered load condition is satisfied i.e. average traffic load at each link is less than its capacity. In this paper, we present that a data network is stable when the bandwidth of the network is allocated so as to provide a minimum bandwidth using max min fairness algorithm. Thus each user will be guaranteed for a minimum bandwidth he will be getting.
