    Abstract

    We study a flow-level model where elastic flows compete with fixed-rate streaming flows. We assume that streaming flows are served with priority, the remaining bandwidth being shared by elastic flows according to Balanced Fairness. We derive exact performance results for streaming flows, and propose performance approximations for elastic flows. Simulation results show that the relevant performance metrics are well estimated with the proposed approximations.
