Abstract
Techniques and apparatus for optimizing scheduling of uplink traffic are provided. One technique includes determining, based on evaluation of a pending interest table (PIT) at an apparatus, at least one portion of an uplink traffic flow from a client device that satisfies one or more conditions for periodicity. A resource for the at least one portion of the uplink traffic flow that satisfies the one or more conditions for periodicity. An indication of the resource allocation is transmitted to the client device.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method performed by an apparatus, comprising:
- determining, based on evaluation of a pending interest table (PIT) at the apparatus, at least one portion of an uplink traffic flow from a client device that satisfies one or more conditions for periodicity;
- determining a resource allocation for the at least one portion of the uplink traffic flow that satisfies the one or more conditions for periodicity;
- and
- transmitting an indication of the resource allocation to the client device.
A network device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory containing a program that, when executed by the processor, performs an operation comprising:
- determining, based on evaluation of a pending interest table (PIT) at the network device, at least one portion of an uplink traffic flow from a client device that satisfies one or more conditions for periodicity;
- determining a resource allocation for the at least one portion of the uplink traffic flow that satisfies the one or more conditions for periodicity;
- and
- transmitting an indication of the resource allocation to the client device.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer executable code stored thereon, the computer executable code being executable by one or more processors to perform an operation comprising:
- determining, based on evaluation of a pending interest table (PIT) at an apparatus, at least one portion of an uplink traffic flow from a client device that satisfies one or more conditions for periodicity;
- determining a resource allocation for the at least one portion of the uplink traffic flow that satisfies the one or more conditions for periodicity;
- and
- transmitting an indication of the resource allocation to the client device.
