IDue to the current resource scheduling algorithms in virtual router not offering promise for the fairness of shared resources, this paper proposes a historical forwarding overhead based resource scheduling algorithm to ensure that router instances occupy determinate physical resources (including CPUs and I/Os) that should be proportional to actual requirements. This algorithm can determine the scheduling priority of router instances by calculating the last forwarding overhead of each router instance to make those router instances with low real throughput have an opportunity for being scheduled. Meanwhile, this algorithm also determines whether or not to discard the non-disposed packets in advance by forecasting their processing time to avoid the unwanted overhead. The experimental results prove that HFOB-RSA has superiority over FIFO algorithm in terms of the fairness of shared resources in virtual router, specially, I/O resources. At last, HFOB-RSA also can provide support for the delay-sensitive router instances.
