Service providers employ different transport technologies like PDH, SDH/SONET, OTN, DWDM, Ethernet, MPLS-TP etc. to support different types of traffic and service requirements. Dynamic service provisioning requires the use of on-line…
FAST-TCP achieves better performance than traditional TCP-Reno schemes, but unfortunately it is inherently unfair to older connections due to wrong estimations of the round-trip propagation delay. This paper presents a model for this…
Vehicles are becoming connected entities. As a result, a likely scenario is that such entities might be literally bombarded with information from a multitude of devices. In this context, a key challenging requirement for both connected and…
Datacenter congestion control protocols are challenged to navigate the throughput-buffering trade-off while relative packet buffer capacity is trending lower year-over-year. In this context, receiver-driven protocols -- which schedule…
