Internet-Draft draft-ietf-detnet-nscore-01.txt is now available. It is a work

Title: On-time Forwarding with Non-Work Conserving Stateless Core Fair Queuing
Authors: Yeoncheol Ryoo

Abstract:
This document specifies the framework and operational procedure for
deterministic networking that guarantees maximum and minimum end-to-
end latency bounds to flows. The solution has non-periodic,
asynchronous, flow-level, non-work conserving, on-time, and rate-
based functional characteristics, according to the taxonomy suggested
by [I-D.ietf-detnet-dataplane-taxonomy].
The packets are stored in the queue in ascending order of the ideal
service start time, called Eligible Time (ET), and the ideal service
completion time, called Finish Time (FT). The queued packets were
forwarded after ET, in ascending ordering of FT, in a non-work
conserving manner. The ET and FT are calculated at the entrance node
according to the packet size and rate of the flow. All subsequent
core nodes are stateless and asynchronously update ET and FT based on
metadata received via packet headers. This mechanism is called non-
work conserving stateless fair queuing (N-SCORE), which guarantees
both E2E latency upper and lower bounds, thus E2E jitter bound.
