Hi Toke,

The two critical references are this paper
<http://www.pnsol.com/public/TP-PNS-2003-09.pdf> and this PhD thesis
<https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/pubs/2003/1892/>. The former describes
"cherish-urgency" multiplexing. The "cherish" is what is different to
today's scheduling. It is used to create a new class of algorithm whose
goal is global optimisation, not local optimisation (and global
pessimisation).

The latter describes a paradigm change from "build it and then reason about
emergent performance" to "reason about engineered performance and then
build it". It works in practise
<http://www.martingeddes.com/how-wales-got-the-first-internet-fast-lane/>,
so whether it works in theory is left as an exercise to the reader.

The first step is to get the measurement right. I'm running a public workshop
in London on 8th Dec <http://scientificnetwork.management>, and I am happy
to accommodate anyone from this list at our internal cost.

Everyone working on AQM has done the best possible within the paradigm they
are operating. There is a bigger box of possibilities available, but it
needs you to engage with a paradigm change.
