The goal of congestion control is to avoid congestion in network elements. A network element is congested if it is being offered more traffic than it can process. To detect such situations and to neutralize them we should monitor traffic in…
In heterogeneous networks such as today's Internet, the differentiated services architecture promises to provide QoS guarantees through scalable service differentiation. Traffic marking is an important component of this framework. In this…
Traffic load-balancing in datacenters alleviates hot spots and improves network utilization. In this paper, a stable in-network load-balancing algorithm is developed in the setting of software-defined networking. A control plane configures…
Cooperative vehicle safety (CVS) systems operate based on broadcast of vehicle position and safety information to neighboring cars. The communication medium of CVS is a vehicular ad-hoc network. One of the main challenges in large scale…
Congestion in router buffer increases the delay and packet loss. Active Queue Management (AQM) methods are able to detect congestion in early stage and control it by packet dropping. Effective Random Early Detection (ERED) method, among…
Fast Congestion Notification (FN) is one of the proactive queue management mechanisms that practices congestion avoidance to help avoid the beginning of congestion by marking or dropping packets before the routers queue gets full; and…
This paper considers an unsignalized intersection used by two traffic streams. A stream of cars is using a primary road, and has priority over the other, low-priority, stream. Cars belonging to the latter stream cross the primary road if…
This paper considers the problem of routing and rebalancing a shared fleet of autonomous (i.e., self-driving) vehicles providing on-demand mobility within a capacitated transportation network, where congestion might disrupt throughput. We…
