Abstract. Adaptive Packet Filters (APFs) are motivated by the
proliferation of distributed servers and the lack of
Quality-of-Service (QoS) management solutions for
them. APFs merge packet-filtering and server load
monitoring into a novel load-sensitive
packet-filtering abstraction for overload protection
and QoS differentiation. They integrate well into
network protocol stacks and firewalls, scale to large
server farms while remaining completely transparent
to the applications. Experimental results of our
prototype implementation demonstrate APFs’ efficacy
in providing QoS differentiation and overload
protection with minimal overheads.
Keywords. Quality of Service, Packet Filters, Overload Protection
