Breaking the Legend: Maxmin Fairness notion is no longer effective

TL;DR

This paper introduces a new fairness concept called Maxmin-charge and a novel scheduling mechanism named Just Queueing, aiming to improve fairness and quality of service for real-time applications by opposing traditional bandwidth allocation methods.

Contribution

It proposes the Maxmin-charge fairness notion and the Just Queueing mechanism as innovative alternatives to traditional bandwidth allocation for better congestion management.

Findings

Maxmin-charge provides a fairer congestion distribution.

Just Queueing improves quality of service for real-time applications.

Analytical demonstration supports the effectiveness of the proposed mechanisms.

Abstract

In this paper we analytically propose an alternative approach to achieve better fairness in scheduling mechanisms which could provide better quality of service particularly for real time application. Our proposal oppose the allocation of the bandwidth which adopted by all previous scheduling mechanism. It rather adopt the opposition approach be proposing the notion of Maxmin-charge which fairly distribute the congestion. Furthermore, analytical proposition of novel mechanism named as Just Queueing is been demonstrated.
