  This paper provides a comprehensive survey of queueing and scheduling
mechanisms for supporting large scale deterministic networks (LDNs). The survey
finds that extensive mechanism design research and standards development for
LDNs has been conducted over the past few years. However, these mechanism
design studies have not been followed up with a comprehensive rigorous
evaluation. The main outcome of this survey is a clear organization of the
various research and standardization efforts towards queueing and scheduling
mechanisms for LDNs as well as the identification of the main strands of
mechanism development and their interdependencies. Based on this survey, it
appears urgent to conduct a comprehensive rigorous simulation study of the main
strands of mechanisms.
