Abstract :
A fluid flow model of a FIFO queueing system is presented and extended to the so-called token leaky bucket case. A simple feedback strategy that guarantees the boundedness of packets buffer queue is then introduced. Some simulations are presented and confronted to experiments run on a network made of Linux machines.
