Benefits of Predictive Service
Depending on traffic burstiness, utilization gains range from twice to order of magnitude: higher gain with more bursty sources
A larger average lifetime to T ratio yields higher utilization but less reliable delay bound
LRD traffic can be effectively handled with measurement-based admission control, as long as there is enough room to accommodate bursts (e.g. by lowering utilization target or increase T to reduce delay violations)
A side general note on admission control:
- flows traversing longer paths have higher chance of being rejected
- also, more demanding flows
- may want to implement some policy?
May implement dynamic estimation or T, to account for burstiness?
