An Algorithmic Toolbox for Network Calculus

Résumé

Network Calculus offers powerful tools to analyze the performances in communication networks, in particular to obtain deterministic bounds. This theory is based on a strong mathematical ground, notably by the use of (min,+) algebra. However the algorithmic aspects of this theory have not been much addressed yet. This paper is an attempt to provide some efficient algorithms implementing Network Calculus operations for some classical functions. Some functions which are often used are the piecewise affine functions which ultimately have a constant growth. As a first step towards algorithmic design, we present a class containing these functions and closed under the Network Calculus operations: the piecewise affine functions which are ultimately pseudo-periodic. They can be finitely described which enables us to propose some algorithms for each of the Network Calculus operations. We finally analyze their computational complexity.
