After more than a decade of development, real time communication (RTC) for video telephony has made significantly progress. However, emerging high-quality RTC applications with high definition and high frame rate requires sufficient…
Today, considerable Internet traffic is sent from the datacenter and heads for users. The characteristics of connections served by servers in datacenters are usually diverse and varied over time, with continuous upgrades in network…
Weighted round robin (WRR) is an effective, yet particularly easy-to-implement packet scheduler. A slight modification in the implementation of WRR, interleaved weighted round robin, has been proposed as an enhancement of the initial…
Long-term location tracking, where trajectory compression is commonly used, has gained high interest for many applications in transport, ecology, and wearable computing. However, state-of-the-art compression methods involve high space-time…
The back-pressure algorithm is a well-known throughput-optimal algorithm. However, its delay performance may be quite poor even when the traffic load is not close to network capacity due to the following two reasons. First, each node has to…
Standard congestion control cannot detect link failure losses which occur due to mobility and power scarcity in multi-hop Ad-Hoc network (MANET). Moreover, successive executions of Back-off algorithm deficiently grow Retransmission Timeout…
The purposes of this paper have to discuss issues related to Network Traffic Management. A relatively new category of network management is fast becoming a necessity in converged business Networks. Mid-sized and large organizations are…
BitTorrent has recently introduced LEDBAT, a novel application-layer congestion control protocol for data exchange. The protocol design starts from the assumption that network bottlenecks are at the access of the network, and that thus user…
Backpressure scheduling and routing, in which packets are preferentially transmitted over links with high queue differentials, offers the promise of throughput-optimal operation for a wide range of communication networks. However, when the…
Following previous theoretical work by Srinivasan (FOCS 2001) and the first author (STACS 2006) and a first experimental evaluation on random instances (ALENEX 2009), we investigate how the recently developed different approaches to…
Routers have packet buffers to reduce packet drops during times of congestion. It is important to correctly size the buffer: make it too small, and packets are dropped unnecessarily and the link may be underutilized; make it too big, and…
Motivated by a wide variety of applications, this paper introduces a general class of networks of stochastic loss systems in which congestion renders lost revenue due to customers or jobs being permanently removed from the system. We seek…
This article investigates the problem of controlling linear time-invariant systems subject to time-varying and a priori unknown cost functions, state and input constraints, and exogenous disturbances. We combine the online convex…
Wireless networks are becoming ever more sophisticated and overcrowded, imposing the most delay, jitter, and throughput damage to end-to-end network flows in today's internet. We therefore argue for fine-grained mobile endpoint-based…
The Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks are quickly being adopted as backbones over various parts of the Internet. This paper analyzes the performance of TCP/IP protocols over ATM network's Available Bit Rate (ABR) and Unspecified Bit…
We consider online optimization with binary decision variables and convex loss functions. We design a new algorithm, binary online gradient descent (bOGD) and bound its expected dynamic regret. We provide a regret bound that holds for any…
Integrated with a high share of Inverter-Based Resources (IBRs), microgrids face increasing complexity of frequency dynamics, especially after unintentional islanding from the maingrid. These IBRs, on the other hand, provide more control…
Due to their inherent complexity, engineered wireless multihop ad hoc communication networks represent a technological challenge. Having no mastering infrastructure the nodes have to selforganize themselves in such a way that for example…
Congestion is an important issue which researchers focus on in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) network environment. To keep the stability of the whole network, congestion control algorithms have been extensively studied. Queue…
