Abstract
The non-preemptive priority queueing with a nite buer is considered. We intro-
duce a randomized push-out buer management mechanism which allows to control
very eÆciently the loss probability of priority packets. The packet loss probabilities
for priority and non-priority traÆc are calculated using the generating function ap-
proach. In the particular case of the standard non-randomized push-out scheme we
obtain explicit analytic expressions. The theoretical results are illustrated by nu-
merical examples. The randomized push-out scheme is compared with the threshold
based push-out scheme. It turns out that the former is much easier to tune than
the latter. The proposed scheme can be applied to the Dierentiated Services of the
