Re: [RPRWG] Definition of terms - First set



Dear Khaled
 
Thank you for your comments. I will try to quantify maximum delay bounds for different kind of services.
 
Next try.
I will change the original definition
Bottleneck-link fairness: Fairness based on a mechanism that coordinates the ring access of only those nodes that use the same links for their packet transfers.
by
Bottleneck-link fairness: Fairness based on a mechanism that controls the throughput of each node according to a fair proportion of that link between source and destination that is shared by the highest number of nodes.
 
Best regards, Harmen

Harmen,
 
This is an excellent piece of work.
 
I have a couple of questions:
  • Do we want to quantify delay jitter instead of just mentioning variation in delay? I know it's a sore point in the literature, but maybe we can come up with something.
  • Not sure I understand your definition for Bottleneck-link fairness
Thanks.
