Blue is an Active Queue Management (AQM) [1] mechanism like Random Early Detection (RED) [2], and has been implemented in ns-2 [3]. This repository contains an implementation of BLUE in ns-3 [4].

An example program for BLUE has been provided in

src/traffic-control/examples/pfifo-vs-blue.cc

and should be executed as

./waf --run "pfifo-vs-blue --queueDiscType=BLUE"
