Abstract :
Weighted fair queueing (WFQ) is a popular scheme because of its guaranteed bandwidth and bounded delay. To make WFQ more flexible, sliding weighted fair queueing (SWFQ) is proposed by combining priority-driven and share-driven scheduling for a real-time network. In this proposal, SWFQ can balance the share and priority-driven characteristics and can allow the application of WFQ to various network environments. This queueing algorithm can also be applied to either IPv4 or IPv6 networks as long as it can provide an adequate quality of service (QoS) support.
