This paper proposes AFMT, a packet scheduling algorithm to achieve adaptive flow-aware multipath tunnelling. AFMT has two unique properties. Firstly, it implements robust adaptive traffic splitting for the subtunnels. Secondly, it detects and schedules bursts of packets cohesively, a scheme that already enabled traffic splitting for load balancing with little to no packet reordering. Several NS-3 experiments over different network topologies show that AFMT successfully deals with changing path characteristics due to background traffic while increasing throughput and reliability.

一种用于多径隧道的自适应流感知包调度算法

本文提出了 AFMT，一种实现自适应流感知多径隧道的分组调度算法。AFMT 有两个独特的属性。首先，它为子隧道实现了鲁棒的自适应流量拆分。其次，它检测和调度突发的数据包，这种方案已经启用了流量拆分以实现负载平衡，几乎没有数据包重新排序。在不同网络拓扑上的几个 NS-3 实验表明，AFMT 成功地处理了由于背景流量而导致的路径特性变化，同时提高了吞吐量和可靠性。
