Buffer management schemes for supporting TCP in gigabit routers with per-flow queueing.

There has been much interest in using active queue management in routers in order to protect users from connections that are not very responsive to congestion notification. An Internet draft recommends schemes based on random early detection for achieving these goals, to the extent that it is possib...
