362 IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING, VOL. 6, NO. 4, AUGUST 1998 Explicit Allocation of Best-Effort Packet Delivery Service David D. Clark, Fellow, IEEE, and Wenjia Fang Abstract— This paper presents the “allocated-capacity” reduce their sending rates to the expected rates. Since different framework for providing different levels of best-effort users have different allocations, the network offers different service in times of network congestion. The “allocated- levels of best-effort service in times of congestion. capacity” framework—extensions to the Internet protocols and algorithms—can allocate bandwidth to different users in a The mechanism in the framework allows users and providers controlled and predictable way during network congestion. The with a wide range of business and administrative goals to framework supports two complementary ways of controlling make capacity allocation decisions. In the public Internet, the bandwidth allocation: sender-based and receiver-based. In where commercial providers offer service for payment, the today’s heterogeneous and commercial Internet the framework feedback to customers is most often monetary. Our framework can serve as a basis for charging for usage and for more efficiently utilizing the network resources. We focus on algorithms for allows the providers to charge different prices to users with essential components of the framework: a differential dropping different service requirements and, thus, fund the deployment algorithm for network routers and a tagging
