Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We develop a new method for estimating "effective bandwidth" of a variable-length-packet flow. The effective bandwidth is the minimum bandwidth that should be allocated to a packet flow for making the buffer overflow probability below a certain quality-of-service objective, Our method needs only a small set of measurements (buffer-occupancy and traffic volume measurements) for estimation and does not rely on any specific traffic model. We analytically show that our proposal has several desirable features (for example, being a kind of non-biased estimator) for IP-network traffic engineering. We provide numerical results to show that the estimation by our method is much more accurate than that of the similar existing proposal.
