Overview
- Performance guarantees are of great importance in engineering products in general but particularly so in those whose customer-base is as large as that for telecommunications
- Exercises at the end of each chapter provide a method of assuring assimilation of the available information
Part of the book series: Telecommunication Networks and Computer Systems (TNCS)

About this book
- (s, r)-calculus
- Filtering theory for deterministic traffic regulation, service guarantees and networks with variable-length packets - Traffic specification
- Networks with multiple inputs and outputs
- Constrained traffic regulation
The second part of the book addresses stochastic (soft) guarantees, focusing mainly on tail distributions of queue lengths and packet loss probabilities and contains material on:
- (s(q), r(q))-calculus and q-envelope rates
- The large deviation principle
- The theory of effective bandwidth
The mathematical theory for stochastic guarantees is the theory of effective bandwidth. Based on the large deviation principle, the theory of effective bandwidth provides approximations for the bandwidths required to meet stochastic guarantees for both short-range dependent inputs and long-range dependent inputs.
