Abstract
A simple analytical approximation to the optimal buffer-management policy valid in the moderate to heavy load ranges is presented. The throughput performance of the present adaptive policies under both steady-state and transient conditions is studied. The superiority of this scheme over the performance resulting from existing buffer-management schemes is demonstrated.<>
