Abstract :
The authors introduce two techniques for allocating and managing buffers in support of distributed system operation and evaluate the resulting system behavior. For this evaluation a methodology that permits the development of an analytic model is introduced. With the help of this model, it becomes possible to fine-tune the buffer allocation policies in realistic system configurations
