News From Monday, any driver coming in to central London will have to pay Mayor Ken Livingstone's controversial congestion charge. A large 'C' on the road marks the boundary of the congestion charge zone but... [14 Feb 2003]
Congestion Control: SCTP Vs TCP
White Paper This paper characterizes an inefficiency in the current speciation of SCTP's congestion control, which degrades performance (more than necessary to be 'TCP-friendly') when there are multiple packet losses in a single... [20 Dec 2007]
Congestion Control Mechanism Within MPLS Networks
White Paper This paper presents congestion control model, which allows to evaluate QoS characteristics using MPLS features. FATE (Fast Acting Traffic Engineering) method is realized in this model, which solves the problem of... [10 Jul 2008]
SCTP and TCP Variants: Congestion Control Under Multiple Losses
White Paper Inefficiency in the current specification of SCTP's congestion control is characterized, which degrades performance when there are multiple packet losses in a single window. First, a Fast Recovery mechanism, similar to... [06 Dec 2007]
Congestion Control Advancements in Linux
White Paper This paper describes the recent advancements in network congestion control in the Linux kernel. Specifically the paper focuses on the TCP congestion framework, and the implementation of the DCCP protocol... [01 Apr 2007]
Congestion Pricing for Highways
White Paper As commuters in most large urban areas can affirm, highway congestion has become a serious problem that carries high costs in terms of time. It is unlikely that the United States could ever "build its way out of... [05 Jul 2005]
TCP Symbiosis: Congestion Control Mechanisms of TCP Based on Lotka-Volterra Competition Model
White Paper This paper proposes TCP Symbiosis, which has a robust, self-adaptive and scalable congestion control mechanism for TCP. The method is quite different from existing approaches. The paper changes the window size of a TCP... [21 Dec 2007]
TCP Westwood: Congestion Control With Faster Recovery
White Paper This paper proposes a new version of the TCP protocol, called TCP Westwood, which enhances the performance of TCP window congestion control by using as feedback the end-to-end measurement of the bandwidth available along... [05 Dec 2007]
Congestion Control for Reliable Multicast Achieving TCP Fairness
White Paper This paper proposes a congestion control scheme for reliable multicast communication which enables TCP fairness and prevents a drop-to-zero problem. The proposed congestion control scheme is rate-based... [15 Jan 2008]
A Positive Systems Model of TCP-Like Congestion Control: Asymptotic Results
White Paper This paper studies communication networks that employ drop-tail queueing and Additive-Increase Multiplicative-Decrease (AIMD) congestion control algorithms. It shows that the theory of nonnegative matrices may be... [15 Jan 2008]
A Machine Learning Approach to Improve Congestion Control Over Wireless Computer Networks
White Paper This paper presents the application of machine learning techniques to the improvement of the congestion control of TCP in wired/wireless networks. TCP is suboptimal in hybrid wired/wireless networks because it reacts in... [27 Dec 2007]
Evaluation of Equation-Based TCP-Friendly Congestion Control Under Lossy Environment
White Paper One class of such protocols depends on modeling TCP traffic and emulating their behavior, particular when the TCP congestion control mechanism is invoked. A major problem in supporting multimedia streaming in the... [09 Jan 2008]
TCP Congestion Window Control on an iSCSI Read Access in a Long-Latency Environment
White Paper This paper presents performance improvement using a dynamic Congestion Window control method to stabilize throughput unevenness.iSCSI network performance is evaluated with a remote storage access on iSCSI protocol using... [09 Jan 2008]
TCP Congestion Window Controlling Algorithms on iSCSI Sequential Read Access
White Paper Congestion Window, one of TCP parameters, has a close relationship with system performance in accessing remote storage with iSCSI. This paper proposes a dynamic Congestion Window control method to... [09 Jan 2008]
A New TCP Congestion Control With Empty Queues and Scalable Stability
White Paper This paper describes a new congestion avoidance system designed to maintain dynamic stability on networks of arbitrary delay, capacity, and topology. When a congestion measure signal from links to... [20 Dec 2007]
