Re: [Bloat] Another passive bandwidth estimation method

[Michael Menth <menth@uni-tuebingen.de>]

Hi Dave,

well, I don't see DSCD as a competitor with cake or fq-pie. DSCD is not 
primarily an aqm mechanism but its central objective is prioritizing ABE 
traffic without harming BE traffic. This idea is more than 20 years old, 
but scalable algorithms were not available, DSCD fills this gap. 
However, some implementation details of DSCD may be useful for other aqm 
mechanisms or scheduling mechanisms, e.g., when it comes to rate 
calculation etc.

Kind regards

Michael

The method is likely to work also for lower utilizations, but this was not an issue in this work. The method is applicable only by a link's head-end node. It does not work for end systems to find the bottleneck bandwidth on some unknown intermediate node. However, it can deliver useful information for scheduling algorithms in forwarding nodes, which is the use case in this paper, and which may be of interest to some readers on this list.
