| The Triage protocol is an end-to-end (E2E) QoS approach introduced in MILCOM 2005 where packet scheduling is biased by priority class, the severity of “distress” in meeting E2E QoS goals, and the likelihood of meeting those goals if queue service rates are altered. In this work, we present novel improvements to the heuristic used to determine the Triage distress biased per-hop behavior of the evaluation function. We also present simulation results showing a 22% bandwidth gain through use of the Triage QoS protocol, and effects under mobility. |
