Abstract
A modification to the 'leaky bucket' algorithm provides fair treatment of Frame Relay packets of varying length. The previously known leaky bucket scheme requires that there be sufficient credits in either the committed burst (Bc) bucket or excess burst (Be) bucket to accommodate the entire frame at an access point for the frame to be accepted. The 'elastic leaky bucket' algorithm of the present invention permits acceptance of frames if there are any credits at all in the relevant buckets. This provides for fair treatment of long frames.
