[GridSim-users] Question on RateControlledScheduler

[Agustín C. H. <ag...@ds...>]

Hello,

I have a question regarding RateControlledScheduler. My problem is as 
follows:

I have 2 network classes, with different baud rates associated to each 
one. If I understood the explanation of
RateControlledScheduler, each traffic class has its own baud rate in 
each link. This is, no matter how much traffic from one class exists, 
the other class will use the same baud rate at all times, am I right?

But I found that ping packets (from one of the classes) took different 
time depending on how much gridlets traffic (from the other class) exists.

My experiments are as follows, my gridlets belong to one of the classes, 
and I do pings which belong to the other class.
Nothing else flow through the network apart from pings and gridlets.

What do u think is the reason for this behavior? Can anything else 
affect the latencies of pings packets? Perhaps the load of computing 
resources affects latencies of pings?

Thanks in advance for ur help!

All the best,

Agustin
