SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONGESTION CONTROL USING RANDOM EARLY DROP AT HEAD OF BUFFER

摘要

A system selectively drops data from a queue. The system includes queues that temporarily store data, a dequeue engine that dequeues data from the queues, and a drop engine that operates independently from the dequeue engine. The drop engine selects one of the queues to examine, determines whether to drop data from a head of the examined queue, and marks the data based on a result of the determination.
