In this paper, we study the new packet dropping scheme using an active queue management algorithm. Active queue management mechanisms differ from the traditional drop tail mechanism in that in a drop tail queue packets are dropped when the buffer overflows, while in active queue management mechanisms, packets may be dropped early before congestion occurs, However, it still incurs high packet loss ratio when the buffer size is not large enough, By detecting congestion and notifying only a randomly selected fraction of connection, RED causes to the global synchronization and fairness problem. And also, it is the biggest problem that the network traffic characteristics need to be known in order to find the optimum average queue length, We propose a new efficient packet dropping method based on the active queue management for congestion control. The proposed scheme uses the per-flow rate and fair share rate estimates. To this end, we present the estimation algorithm to compute the flow arrival rate and the link fair rate, We shows the proposed method improves the network performance because the traffic generated can not cause rapid fluctuations in queue lengths which result in packet loss

AQM (Active Queue Management) techniques such as RED (Random Early Detection) which be proposed to solve the congestion of internet perform congestion control effectively for TCP data. However, in the situation where TCP and UDP share the bottleneck link, they can not solve the problems of the unfairness and long queueing delay. In this paper, we proposed an simple queue management algorithm, called PSRED (Protocol Sensitive RED), that improves fairness and decreases queueing delay. PSRED algorithm improves fairness and decreases average queue length by distinguishes each type of flow in using protocol field of packets and applies different drop functions to them respectively.

기존의 인터넷 라우터는 Drop tail 방식으로 패킷을 관리한다. 따라서 네트워크 트래픽의 지수적인 증가로 인한 혼잡 상황으로 발생하는 패킷 손실을 해결할 수 없다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force)에서는 RED(Random Early Detection)와 같은 능동적인 큐 관리 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 하지만 RED는 동적으로 변화하는 인터넷 트래픽에 대하여 단지 큐 크기의 변화 정보를 얻어 혼잡 상황을 제어하기 때문에 성능에 있어는 매우 비효율적이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 RED를 개선한 MRED를 제안했다. MRED는 RED에 비하여 휴리스틱한 방법을 이용하여 폐기 확률 값을 계산하고, 이를 실험을 통하여 MRED의 성능을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서 우리는 DiffServ 환경에서 멀티미디어 서비스가 요구하는 품질 수준을 고려하는 QoS-aware AQM(Active Queue Management) 방안을 제안한다. 지연과 손실에 민감한 IPTV 및 VoIP와 같은 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스의 사용 증가로 인해 QoS 제공은 필수적이며, 이에 따라 응용계층에서 명시된 QoS 요구 수준을 네트워크 계층에서 인식하여 전달망에서 QoS를 제공할 수 있는 큐 관리 방안이 필요하다. 기존 DiffServ의 수정된 DSCP 필드를 이용하여 요청된 QoS 품질 정보를 네트워크 장비에 전달하고 해당 서비스의 지연 및 손실률 요구 수준에 대한 threshold margin을 도출하고 이 범위 내에서 큐의 임계값을 능동적으로 제어함으로써 종단간 IPTV 및 VoIP와 같은 멀티미디어 서비스의 QoS를 보장할 수 있다.

In order to reduce the increasing packet loss rates caused by an exponential increase in network traffic, the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) is considering the deployment of active queue management techniques such as RED(Random Early Detection). But, RED configuration has been a problem since its first proposal. This problem is that proposed configuration is only good for the particular traffic conditions studied, but may have detrimental effects if used in other conditions. While active queue management in routers and gateways can potentially reduce packet loss rates in the Internet, this paper has demonstrated the inherent weakness of current techniques and shows that they are unstable for tile various traffic conditions. The inherent problem with these queue management algorithms is that they all use static parameter setting. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, a new active queue management algorithm called SQM(Stabilized Queue Management) is proposed. This paper shows that it is easy to parameterize SQM algorithm to perform well under different congestion scenarios. This algorithm can effectively reduce packet loss while maintaining high link utilizations and is good for the various traffic conditions.

Active queue management (AQM) refers to a family of packet dropping mechanisms for router queues that has been proposed to support end-to-end congestion control mechanisms in the Internet. The proposed AQM algorithm by the IETF is Random Early Detection (RED). The RED algorithm allows network operators simultaneously to achieve high throughput and low average delay. However. the resulting average queue length is quite sensitive to the level of congestion. In this paper, we propose the Refined Adaptive RED(RARED), as a solution for reducing the sensitivity to parameters that affect RED performance. Based on simulations, we observe that the RARED scheme improves overall performance of the network. In particular, the RARED scheme reduces packet drop rate and improves goodput.

In order to reduce the increasing packet loss rates caused by an exponential increase in network traffic, the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) is considering the deployment of active queue management techniques such as RED(Random Early Detection) algorithm. However, RED algorithm simple but does not protect traffic from high-bandwidth flows, which include not only flows that fail to use end-to-end congestion control such as UDP flow, but also short round-trip time TCP flows. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, we propose a simple fairness queue management scheme, called AFQM(Approximate Fair Queue Management) algorithm, that discriminate against the flows which submit more packets/sec than is allowed by their fair share. By doing this, the scheme aims to approximate the fair queueing policy Since it is a small overhead and easy to implement, AFQM algorithm controls unresponsive or misbehaving flows with a minimum overhead.

현재의 인터넷 라우터는 Drop tail 방식으로 큐 안의 패킷을 관리한다. 따라서 네트워크 트래픽의 지수적인 증가로 인해 발생하는 혼잡 상황을 명시적으로 해결 한 수 없다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force)에서는 RED(Random Early Detection)알고리즘과 같은 능동적인 큐 관리 알고리즘(AQM: Active Queue Algorithm)을 제시하였다. 하지만 RED 알고리즘은 네트워크 환경에 따른 매개 변수의 설정의 어려움을 가지고 있어 잘못된 매개변수 설정으로 인하여 네트워크 성능을 저하시키는 문제를 발생시키며 전체 망에 불안정한 혼잡제어를 야기 시킨다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 AQM를 개선한 SOQuM(Stabilized Operation of Queue Management) 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 기존의 방법과 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 비교하였다.

IP 네트워크 상에 TCP 데이터 트래픽의 제공은 처리율과 공정성을 향상시키기 위해 특별한 기법이 필요하다. 여기에는 DT와 RED와 같은 많은 기법들이 제안되었다. RED 알고리즘은 폭주를 회피하고 적은 지연과 높은 처리율을 유지하기 위한 목적으로 제안되었다. 현재의 TCP/IP 환경에서 TCP 근원지는 Slow-Start 단계에 들어감으로써 드롭된 패킷에 반응하지만, 네트워크 이용률은 급속히 떨어진다. 폭주를 탐지하고, 이를 무작위로 선택된 연결에 통보하므로써 RED는 글로벌 동기화 및 공정성 문제를 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 성능을 향상시키기 위해 공정성을 유지하고, 글로벌 동기화 문제를 해결할 수 있는 능동적인 큐 관리 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 버퍼크기와 임계치 변화에 따른 goodput, 처리율, 공정성의 평가인자를 이용하여 기존의 기법인 DT, RED와 비교 분석을 수행하고, 제안된 기법의 타당성을 보인다.

In order to reduce the increasing packet loss rates caused by an exponential increase in network traffic, the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) is considering the deployment of active queue management techniques such as RED(Random Early Detection). While active queue management in routers and gateways can potentially reduce total packet loss rates in the Internet, this paper has demonstrated the inherent weakness of current techniques and shows that they are ineffective in preventing high loss rates. The inherent problem with these queue management algorithms is that they all use queue lengths as the indicator of the severity of congestion. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, a new active queue management algorithm called MRED(Modified Random Early Detection) is proposed. MRED computes the packet drop probability based on our heuristic method rather than the simple method used in RED. Using simulation, MRED is shown to perform better than existing queue management schemes. To analyze the performance, we also measure throughput of traffics under the FIFO control, and compared the performance with that of this MRED system.
