- Achieving 100% Throughput in TCP/AQM Under Aggressive Packet Marking With Small Buffer
- This paper investigates the performance of TCP/AQM systems with ECN marks under the aggressive scale for packet marking and a buffer of size smaller than O(?N). Under such a scale, the paper demonstrates that randomness both in packet arrivals and in packet marking must be taken into account and developed...

- Progressive Buffers: View-Dependent Geometry and Texture LOD Rendering
- This paper introduces a view-dependent level of detail rendering system designed with modern GPU architectures in mind. The approach keeps the data in static buffers and geomorphs between different LODs using per-vertex weights for seamless transition. The authors' method is the first out-of-core system to support texture mapping, including a...

- Performance of TCP Over a Link Using Fair Queueing
- Despite its apparent simplicity, buffer dimensioning is not a well understood topic. Until quite recently, a simple rule based on the functioning of TCP Reno, advised a buffer size equal to the Bandwidth Delay Product: the buffer must have enough place to never become idle when a single TCP flow...

- Synchronization of TCP Flows in Networks With Small DropTail Buffers
- A recent fluid-model formulation of an Internet congestion-control problem considers routers with small Droptail buffers. This paper is interested in the oscillatory regime of such networks and considers a topology where two TCP-controlled flows (each regulated by separate edge routers) merge to compete for bandwidth at a common core router....
