In this research, we investigate the feasibility of adopting the Bottleneck Bandwidth and Round-trip propagation time (BBR) protocol as the default congestion control mechanism for TCP. Our central question is whether BBR, particularly its…
Compressed video is well known to be self-similar in nature. We model VBR carrying Long-Range Dependent (LRD), multiplexed MPEG-2 video sources. The actual traffic for the model is generated using fast-fourier transform of generate the…
The present report deals with the modeling of the long-term throughput, a.k.a., send rate, of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) under the following assumptions. (i) We consider a single 'infinite source' using a network path from…
Motivated by the recent introduction and large-scale deployment of BBR congestion control algorithms, multiple studies have investigated the performance and fairness implications of this shift from loss-based to delay-based congestion…
We propose \textbf{Temporal Conformal Prediction (TCP)}, a distribution-free framework for constructing well-calibrated prediction intervals in nonstationary time series. TCP couples a modern quantile forecaster with a rolling…
The Available Bit Rate (ABR) service has been developed to support 21st century data applications over Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). The ABR service uses a closed-loop rate-based traffic management framework where the network divides…
The advent of fourth generation technologies in wireless networks and the rapid growth of 3G have heralded an era that will require researchers to find reliable and easily implement-able solutions to the problem of poor TCP performance in…
Understanding queuing dynamics of TCP is important for correct router buffer sizing as well as for optimizing the performance of the TCP protocol itself. However, modeling of buffer content dynamics under TCP has received relatively little…

Minimizing latency and power are key goals in the design of NoC routers. Different proposals combine lookahead routing and router bypass to skip the arbitration and buffering, reducing router delay. However, the conditions to use them…
Message passing programs commonly use buffers to avoid unnecessary synchronizations and to improve performance by overlapping communication with computation. Unfortunately, using buffers makes the program no longer portable, potentially…
Currently, TCP is the most popular and widely used network transmission protocol. In actual fact, about 90% of connections on the internet use TCP to communicate. Through several upgrades and improvements, TCP became well optimized for the…
This article considers the performance of digital communication systems transmitting messages over finite-state erasure channels with memory. Information bits are protected from channel erasures using error-correcting codes; successful…
In the reordering buffer problem (RBP), a server is asked to process a sequence of requests lying in a metric space. To process a request the server must move to the corresponding point in the metric. The requests can be processed slightly…
We model World Wide Web (WWW) servers and clients running over an ATM network using the ABR (available bit rate) service. The WWW servers are modeled using a variant of the SPECweb96 benchmark, while the WWW clients are based on a model by…
Optimizing a connection through a quantum repeater network requires careful attention to the photon propagation direction of the individual links, the arrangement of those links into a path, the error management mechanism chosen, and the…
