Abstract

A critical challenge for networking vendors and carrier companies is to be able to accurately estimate the quality of service (QoS) that will be provided based on the network architecture, router/switch topology, and protocol applied. In addition, due to the development of technologies like multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) and generalized MPLS (GMPLS), which can deploy differentiated services (DiffServ), the variation in QoS performance based on the priority assignment is of significant importance. In this focus, this paper provides a theoretical analysis of interarrival packet jitter of homogeneous traffic based on a nonpreemptive head-of-the-line (HOL) priority scheme.
