whitepaper A rate-based congestion control that tunes the inter-packet transmission time helps achieve both efficiency and fairness. It uses UDP to transfer data and TCP to return control messages. This paper describes SABUL, an application-level data...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper These problems are due to slow loss-recovery, a RTT bias inherent in its AIMD congestion-control algorithm, and the bursting data flow caused by its window control. UDT has a congestion control mechanism that maintains efficiency, fairness and...

whitepaper This paper studies the impact of randomness (i.e.variation of queuing delay due to cross traffic) on the performance of a (one-to-many) multicast session in the presence of a "TCP-like" congestion control mechanism.
[04 Apr 2008]
whitepaper This paper presents a history of congestion control research and an analysis of a specific rate-based congestion control protocol, TCP-friendly rate control (TFRC). The classic TCP congestion control mechanisms are introduced as an instance of...
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This paper investigates several TCP-friendly congestion control mechanisms and sorts them according to their implementation methods. This paper also suggests that combination of end-to-end mechanisms and hop-by-hop mechanisms is the future of TCP...

whitepaper 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 one based on NAKs from receivers and...

whitepaper This paper focuses on understanding the binomial congestion control algorithms, and can generalize TCP-style additive-increase by increasing inversely proportional to a power k of the current window (for TCP, k=0) and generalize TCP-style...

whitepaper For the past decade, TCP congestion control mechanisms have been under the scrutiny of the network research community. More recently, motivated by the increased popularity of multimedia services, several efforts have been investigating TCP-friendly...

whitepaper This paper proposes using a modified TCP decoupling approach as a congestion control mechanism for optical burst switched networks. The TCP decoupling approach is a novel way that can apply TCP congestion control to any traffic flow (which can be...

whitepaper This paper proposes a window-based congestion control algorithm to achieve a max-min fair sharing of the available bandwidth in ECN capable heterogeneous TCP networks. The proposed algorithm uses the successive binary congestion information...
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This paper surveys the fairness issues in the congestion control mechanisms of TCP, which is one of most important service aspects in the current and future Internet. Those are modifications of TCP congestion control mechanism and router support...

whitepaper TCP congestion control has been designed to ensure Internet stability along with fair and efficient allocation of the network bandwidth. During the last decade, many congestion control algorithms have been proposed to improve the classic Tahoe/Reno...
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This paper proposes a novel congestion control mechanism of TCP, by using an inline network measurement technique. By using information of available bandwidth of a network path between sender and receiver hosts, it constructs quite a different...

whitepaper In this paper, the applicability of an equation-based mechanism to congestion control for a protocol which bases its join and leave actions on the calculation of the TCP response function is investigated.

whitepaper TCP Westwood (TCPW) is a sender-side modification of the TCP congestion window algorithm that improves upon the performance of TCP Reno in wired as well as wireless networks. In fact, TCPW performance is not very sensitive to random errors, while...
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This estimate is used to adaptively decrease the congestion window and slow start threshold after a congestion episode. Westwood+ TCP is a sender-side only modification of the classic Tahoe/Reno TCP that has been recently proposed to improve...

whitepaper 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 employed to model such networks.

[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper With TCP the network congestion is controlled by adjusting the transmission rate through congestion window (cwnd). The dynamics of TCP can be modelled by switching between the two sub-dynamic models: dynamics of congestion avoidance and dynamics of...

whitepaper In wireless environment, TCP suffers from significant performance degradation due to bit errors on wireless link and handover because it responds to all packet losses by invoking congestion control even though packet losses are not related to...
