Abstract
A system for monitoring congestion at processors includes queues and a congestion monitor. The queues receive packets, and each queue is associated with a processor. For each queue, the congestion monitor establishes whether a time-averaged occupancy of a queue exceeds a time-averaged occupancy threshold. The congestion monitor provides a notification if the time-averaged occupancy exceeds the time-averaged occupancy threshold.
