Abstract
The current network, which is based on managing resources on demand and
accepting uncontrolled communication request, often leads to problems such
as congestion and other queueing bottlenecks. The extent of congestion and
queues depends on the variability in customer arrival times, services
needed, and the resource allocation mechanism used by system components.
The queue sizes, which results in congestion, can be reduced only by
controlling the variability in customer arrival times, and this is best
done by making explicit use of time. Cyclone technology uses the
information based on times of events explicitly, including the design of
systems. Cyclone provides the coordination of resources through dynamic,
time-based resource management leading to a network that is capable of
providing end-to-end low latency communications free of losses, jitter,
