Abstract

The basic algorithm used for the active management of queues of packets in Internet routers is based on accepting an incoming packet with the probability that is a function of the queue size. An analytical model of such queueing system has been solved recently via transform techniques. However, the form of these analytical results restrict obtaining exact solutions to very small buffers (e.g. 20 packets). In this paper we study numerical techniques that allow evaluation of systems of more practical sizes – hundreds of packets. In particular, we compare accuracy and execution time of seven inversion methods needed to compute the queueing characteristics of the router.
