Queuing disciplines on Linux made easy
Abstract
This is a project to implement a Mice and Elephants queueing discipline, which favours short flows over long flows, on Linux. The project has three aims. The first aim is to produce a prototype Mice and Elephants router for the purpose of further evaluation of the Mice and Elephants strategy and the Shortest Job First strategy. The second aim is to make a contribution to Linux by making my implementation as code that is both fit for distribution with Linux and useful in a small business or domestic setting. The third aim is to explore and document a method of creating Linux queueing disciplines in general.
