Multi-Service Network Analysis
Abstract
For some types of queues, multi-service network analysis is facilitated. This is the case when queues are reversible, or decoupled, in a network. A multi-service network can then be analyzed analytically, by fixed-point approximation or using effective bandwidths directly. When analyzed analytically, multidimensional convolutional methods or mean value analysis can be used. These are simply extensions of single service methods to multiple methods. A fixed-point approximation may be used, in addition, to model adaptive routing schemes. By using shaping and policing, it can be shown that the effective bandwidths between nodes are decoupled. Subject to routing probabilities, each node can then ...
