Overview:

The paper studies an optimal choice of the buffer size in the Internet routers. The objective is to determine the minimum value of the buffer size required in order to fully utilize the link capacity. There are some empirical rules for the choice of the buffer size. The most known rule of thumb states that the buffer length should be set to the bandwidth delay product of the network, i.e., the product between the average round trip time in the network and the capacity of the bottleneck link. Several recent works have suggested that as a consequence of the traffic aggregation, the buffer size should be set to smaller values.
