That it is a more likely scenario to have Heterogeneous Buffer Sizes instead of Homogeneous Buffer Sizes. Hence, du ring my ME research study, I study the effects of Heterogeneous Buffer Sizes on the end-to-end delay and jitter when UDP is used for transmission of data of real time applications. After studying this effect, I hope to establish guidelines to decide optimal buffer sizes to be used in intermediate nodes, which may help in reduction of end-to-end delay and jitter when UDP is used for transmission.  aDepartment of Master Engineering in Communication Engineering Faculty of Electrical, Electronics & Computer System Engineering  uhttps://tinyurl.com/bpa8c26n
