| Abstract | Appliances used to control and convey network trac are staring to resemble more and more full grown computer systems. Many of the new appliances start as a combination of standardized parts running custom software on an freely available embedded operating system. Linux operating system has gained a foothold in embedded systems market. Its extensive hardware support and availablility of the source code have made it a natural choice amongst multiple networking hardware vendors. The purpose of this thesis is to implement a delay-bounded hybrid pro-portional delay packet scheduler for Linux kernel in an embedded environment, and to validate the scheduler's functionality against a selection of other packet schedulers. The implementation is created as an extension to the Linux trac control system. The new code uses already existing application programming in-terfaces and is written following the community established kernel programming guidelines. The validation is done by comparing both theoretical and practical performance of the new scheduler against rst-in, rst-out, priority queuing and |
