The growing use of clusters in diverse applications, many of which have real-time constraints, requires Quality-of- Service (QoS) support from the underlying cluster interconnect. In this paper, we propose an analytical model that captures the characteristics of a QoS capable wormhole router, which is the basic building block of cluster networks. The model captures the behavior of integrated traffic in a cluster and computes the average deadline missing probability for real-time traffic. The cluster interconnect, considered here, is a hypercube network. Comparison of Deadline Missing Probability (DMP) using the proposed model with that of the simulation shows that our analytical model is accurate and useful.
