The congestion control algorithms in TCP may incur inferior performance in a lossy network context like wireless networks. Previous works have shown that random linear network coding can improve the throughput of TCP in such networks,…
We study probabilistic protocols for concurrent threshold-based load balancing in networks. There are n resources or machines represented by nodes in an undirected graph and m >> n users that try to find an acceptable resource by moving…
Although delay-based congestion control protocols such as FAST promise to deliver better performance than traditional TCP Reno, they have not yet been widely incorporated to the Internet. Several factors have contributed to their lack of…
Existing transport protocols, be it TCP, SCTP or DCCP, do not provide an efficient congestion control mechanism for heterogeneous wired-cum-wireless networks. Solutions involving implicit loss discrimination schemes have been proposed but…
Identifying the occurrence of congestion in a Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a major task. The inbuilt congestion control techniques of existing Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) designed for wired networks do not handle the unique…
Emerging standardization of Geo Mobile Radio (GMR-1) for satellite system is having strong resemblance to terrestrial GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) at the upper protocol layers and TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is one…
Traditional end-to-end congestion control mechanisms assume data transferring happens between each pair user. In contrast, in a P2P network, many peers may locally keep a copy of a specific data object. If the path between a pair of peers…
We present ACP+, an age control protocol, which is a transport layer protocol that regulates the rate at which update packets from a source are sent over the Internet to a monitor. The source would like to keep the average age of sensed…
We analyze the performance of TCP and TCP with network coding (TCP/NC) in lossy wireless networks. We build upon the simple framework introduced by Padhye et al. and characterize the throughput behavior of classical TCP as well as TCP/NC as…
Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) has been proved to offer an efficient communication scheme, leveraging an interesting robustness against packet losses. However, it suffers from a high computational complexity and some novel approaches,…
Multifractal characteristics of the Internet traffic have been discovered and discussed in several research papers so far. However, the origin of this phenomenon is still not fully understood. It has been proven that the congestion control…
Congestion control algorithms rely on a variety of congestion signals (packet loss, Explicit Congestion Notification, delay, etc.) to achieve fast convergence, high utilization, and fairness among flows. A key limitation of these congestion…
We introduce a model of the Relentless Congestion Control proposed by Matt Mathis. Relentless Congestion Control (RCC) is a modification of the AIMD (Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease) congestion control which consists in decreasing…
Topology Control (TC) aims at tuning the topology of highly dynamic networks to provide better control over network resources and to increase the efficiency of communication. Recently, many TC protocols have been proposed. The protocols are…
During overload, most networks drop packets due to buffer unavailability. The resulting timeouts at the source provide an implicit mechanism to convey congestion signals from the network to the source. On a timeout, a source should not only…
We introduce CTCP, a reliable transport protocol using network coding. CTCP is designed to incorporate TCP features such as congestion control, reliability, and fairness while significantly improving on TCP's performance in lossy,…
Network-assisted congestion control leveraging Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) is an effective way to deal with congestion issues on the Internet. However, we believe that the existing ECN mechanism in the TCP/IP protocol stack may…
This paper designs traffic signal control policies for a network of signalized intersections without knowing the demand and parameters. Within a model predictive control (MPC) framework, control policies consist of an algorithm that…
In mobile adhoc networks, congestion occurs with limited resources. The standard TCP congestion control mechanism is not able to handle the special properties of a shared wireless channel. TCP congestion control works very well on the…
A Markovian model of the evolution of intermittent connections of various classes in a communication network is established and investigated. Any connection evolves in a way which depends only on its class and the state of the network, in…
