- On the Stability of Networks Operating TCP-Like Congestion Control
- This paper derives decentralized and scalable stability conditions for a fluid approximation of a class of Internet-like communications networks operating a modified form of TCP-like congestion control. The network consists of an arbitrary interconnection of sources and links with heterogeneous propagation delays. The model here allows for arbitrary concave utility...

- COCOON: An Alternative Approach to End-Point Congestion Management
- This paper proposes an alternate endpoint congestion management scheme, called COordinated COngestion cONtrol COCOON. The basic idea is to identify and group connections that may traverse the same backbone link, to enable them to share congestion information, and to coordinate among them all the congestion avoidance/control activities. The size of...

- De-Randomizing Congestion Losses to Improve TCP Performance Over Wired-Wireless Network
- Currently, a TCP sender considers all losses as congestion signals and reacts to them by throttling its sending rate. With Internet becoming more heterogeneous with more and more wireless error-prone links, a TCP connection may unduly throttle its sending rate and experience poor performance over paths experiencing random losses unrelated...

- Propagation Loss Models Characterization for GSM 900MHz at Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya
- Propagation loss modelling of cellular mobile system is important for coverage design and prediction. Propagation loss models are usually used to predict the received signal strength at a certain distance from the base station. For site planning, the transmission loss and signal coverage can be predicted by a set of...

- Congestion Control in Linux TCP
- The TCP protocol is used by the majority of the network applications on the Internet. TCP performance is strongly influenced by its congestion control algorithms that limit the amount of transmitted traffic based on the estimated network capacity and utilization. Because the freely available Linux operating system has gained popularity...

- Issues in Performance Evaluation of New TCP Stacks in High Speed Networks
- TCP congestion control has been designed to ensure Internet stability along with fair and efficient allocation of the network bandwidth. With the spreading of high-speed and long-distance networks, the standard TCP congestion control algorithm showed some limitations in exploiting full bandwidth utilization. During the last few years, many new congestion...

- MTCP: Scalable TCP-Like Congestion Control for Reliable Multicast
- The paper presents MTCP, a congestion control scheme for large-scale reliable multicast. Congestion control for reliable multicast is important, because of its wide applications in multimedia and collaborative computing, yet nontrivial, because of the potentially large number of receivers involved. Many schemes have been proposed to handle the recovery of...
