We consider the adaptation of random early detection (RED) as an active queue management algorithm for TCP traffic in Internet gateways where different maximum transfer units (MTUs) are used. We studied the two existing RED variants and…

RED (Random Early Detection) has been suggested when multiple TCP sessions are multiplexed through a bottleneck buffer. The idea is to detect congestion before the buffer overflows by dropping or marking packets with a probability that…

This paper proposes an adaptive variant of Random Early Detection (RED) gateway queue management for packet-switched networks via a discrete state analog of the non-stationary Master Equation i.e. Markov process. The computation of average…

In order to curtail the escalating packet loss rates caused by an exponential increase in network traffic, active queue management techniques such as Random Early Detection (RED) have come into picture. Flow Random Early Drop (FRED) keeps…

The problem of increased queueing delays in the Internet motivates the study of currently implemented transport protocols and active queue management (AQM) policies. We study Compound TCP (default protocol in Windows) with Random Early…

To solve the parameter sensitive issue of the traditional RED (random early detection) algorithm, an adaptive buffer management algorithm called PAFD (packet adaptive fair dropping) is proposed. This algorithm supports DiffServ…

The Random early detection (RED) active queue management (AQM) scheme uses the average queue size to calculate the dropping probability in terms of minimum and maximum thresholds. The effect of heavy load enhances the frequency of crossing…

Packet losses in the network significantly impact network performance. Most TCP variants reduce the transmission rate when detecting packet losses, assuming network congestion, resulting in lower throughput and affecting bandwidth-intensive…

Congestion on the Internet is an old problem but still a subject of intensive research. The TCP protocol with its AIMD (Additive Increase and Multiplicative Decrease) behavior hides very challenging problems; one of them is to understand…

This work studies two types of computer networking models. The primary focus is to understand the different dynamical phenomena observed in practice due to the presence of severe nonlinearities, delays and widely varying operating…

Two important aspects of the Internet, namely the properties of its topology and the characteristics of its data traffic, have attracted growing attention of the physics community. My thesis has considered problems of both aspects. First I…

Initially TCP was designed with the notion in mind that wired networks are generally reliable and any segment loss in a transmission is due to congestion in the network rather than an unreliable medium (The assumptions is that the packet…

With an increase in the number of internet users and the need to secure internet traffic, the unreliable IPv4 protocol has been replaced by a more secure protocol, called IPv6 for Internet system. The IPv6 protocol does not allow…

ATM-UBR switches respond to congestion by dropping cells when their buffers become full. TCP connections running over UBR experience low throughput and high unfairness. For 100% TCP throughput each switch needs buffers equal to the sum of…

In the online packet buffering problem (also known as the unweighted FIFO variant of buffer management), we focus on a single network packet switching device with several input ports and one output port. This device forwards unit-size,…

Despite encryption, the packet size is still visible, enabling observers to infer private information in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment (e.g., IoT device identification). Packet padding obfuscates packet-length characteristics…

A low and stable buffer occupancy is critical to achieve high throughput, low packet drop rate, low latency, and low jitter for data center networks. It also allows switch chips to support higher port density, larger lookup tables, or…

Network structures in a wide array of systems such as social networks, transportation, power and water distribution infrastructures, and biological and ecological systems can exhibit critical thresholds or tipping points beyond which there…

In this paper we have presented the effects of path mtu discovery in IPv4 & IPv6 in mathematical, logical and graphical representation. We try to give a mathematical model to the working of path mtu discovery and calculated its behaviour…

Network administrators want to detect TCP-level packet reordering to diagnose performance problems and attacks. However, reordering is expensive to measure, because each packet must be processed relative to the TCP sequence number of its…
