Description

This Generic Function belongs to Working Area Network. Function to optimise traffic or resource usage based on various queuing policies. Examples of queuing policies can be:

  • First in, first out
    This policy states that data elements are processed one at a time and that the data elements that has been waiting the longest is served first.
  • Last in first out
    This policy also serves data elements one at a time, however the data element with the shortest waiting time will be served first.
  • Resource sharing
    Service capacity is shared equally.
  • Priority
    Data elements with an assigned priority that is higher than that of another data element is served first. Priority queues can be of two types, non-pre-emptive (where a job in service cannot be interrupted) and pre-emptive (where a job in service can be interrupted by a higher priority job). No work is lost in either model.
  • Shortest job first
    The next job to be served is the one with the smallest size
  • Pre-emptive shortest job first
    The next job to be served is the one with the original smallest size
  • Shortest remaining processing time
    The next job to serve is the one with the smallest remaining processing requirement.
