Abstract

Due to the success of new multimedia technologies, there is a great interest for providing a resource allocation strategy suitable for multimedia applications. Many solutions proposed in literature are based on proportional share resource allocation, such as WFQ, WF$^2$Q, EEVDF, or SFQ. In a previous paper, we showed how to perform resource reservation according to a Constant Bandwidth allocation. In this paper we compare Proportional Share and Constant Bandwidth resource allocation strategies, by showing advantages and drawbacks of both techniques.
