A plethora of transmission control protocol (TCP) congestion control algorithms have been devoted to achieving the ultimate goal of high link utilization and fair bandwidth sharing in high bandwidth-delay product (HBDP) networks. We present a new insight into the TCP congestion control problem; in particular an end-to-end delay-based approach for an HBDP network. Our main focus is to design an end-to-end mechanism that can achieve the goal without the assistance of any network feedback. Without a router's aid in notifying the network load factor of a bottleneck link, we utilize goodput and throughput values in order to estimate the load factor. The obtained load factor affects the congestion window adjustment. The new protocol, which is called TCP-goodput and throughput (GT), adopts the carefully designed inversely-proportional increase multiplicative decrease window control policy. Our protocol is stable and efficient regardless of the link capacity, the number of flows, and the round-trip delay. Simulation results show that TCP-GT achieves high utilization, good fairness, small standing queue size, and no packet loss in an HBDP environment.

In this paper, ATM network congestion control with explicit rate feedback is considered. In ATM networks, delays commonly appear in data transmission and have to be considered in congestion control design. In this paper, a bounded single round delay on the return path is considered. Our objective is to design an explicit rate feedback control that achieves a robust optimal $H_2$ performance regardless of the bounded time-varying delays. An optimization approach in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is given. Saturation in source rate and queue buffer is also taken into consideration in the proposed design. Simulations for the cases of single source and multiple sources are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the design.

The issue of supporting TCP traffic over ATM networks is currently one of the most important issues in the field of data networks. One important part of this issue is congestion control. In general, congestion control uses method such as packet drop to relieve network resource when the network is congested so as to maintain high throughput and low delay. In addition, congestion control is required to ensure fair sharing of resources among all users during congestion. In this paper we propose a new congestion control method using WRED & per-VC accounting mechanism. This packet discard scheme is proposed with the goal to provide both good performance in terms of throughput and fairness in terms of bandwidth exploitation of the output link among all virtual circuits.

최근에 제안된 TCP Vegas는 네트워크의 상황을 예측하고, 상황에 맞는 전송율의 변화를 통해 흐름제어와 혼잡제어를 함으로써 기존의 TCP Reno에 비해 많은 성능향상을 이루었다. 그러나 TCP Vegas는 네트워크에 대한 모델이 없기 때문에 네트워크의 가용대역폭을 충분히 활용할 정확한 전송율을 계산하지 못하고, 제한된 윈도우의 변화만을 적용시킴으로 인해, 급변하는 가용 대역폭의 변화에 적응을 하지 못하고 손실이 발생할 가능성이 여전히 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하고자 TCP의 단대단 연결을 큐잉 시스템으로 모델링하여 적절한 전송율을 결정함으로써, 안정되고 빠르게 가용 대역폭에 수렴하는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 TCP Vegas와의 성능 비교 결과는 제안된 알고리듬이 가용 대역폭이 급변하는 네트워크 환경에서 TCP Vegas 보다 안정적이고 빠르게 반응하기 때문에 외부 트래픽의 변화에 더 잘 적응하고 처리율을 향상시키는 결과를 보여준다.

We propose a feedback-based congestion control algorithm for the wireless TCP network. In this paper, we present a new TCP protocol to control the congestion window size. In particular, the asymptotic analysis of the wireless TCP is presented. Through simulations, our algorithm shows an improvement of TCP’s performance in wireless networks.

End-to-end congestion control mechanism have been critical to the robustness and stability of the Internet. Most of today's Internet traffic is TCP, and we expect this to remain so in the future. TCP/IP is the intermediate transport layer candidate for today's applications. TCP uses an adaptive window-based flow control. The congestion avoidance and control algorithms deployed by TCP aims at using the available network bandwidth. This paper compares different congestion control policies, and proposes the new design mechanism for future public networks

ATM based MPLS(Multiprotocol Label Switching) is discussed for its provisioning QOS commitment capabilities, Traffic engineering and smooth migration for BcN in Korea. At this time, due to the comprehensive nature of ATM protocol, ATM has been adapted as the backbone system for carrying Internet traffic[1,2,3,4]. This paper presents preventive congestion control mechanisms for detecting HTR(Hard-To-Reach) LSP(Label Switched Path) in ATM based MPLS systems. In particular, we have introduced a HTR LSP detection method using network signaling information in an ATM layer. MPLS related studies can cover LSP failures in a physical layer fault, it can not impact network congestion status. Here we will present the research results for introducing HTR LSP detection methods and control mechanisms and this mechanism can be implementing as SOC for high speed processing a packet header. We concluded that it showed faster congestion avoidance abilities with a more reduced system load and maximized the efficiency of network resources by restricting ineffective machine attempts.

Congestion occurring at wireless sensor networks(WSNs) causes packet delay and packet drop, which directly affects overall QoS(Quality of Service) parameters of network. Network congestion is critical when important data is to be transmitted through network. Thus, it is significantly important to effectively control the congestion. In this paper, new mechanism to guarantee reliable transmission for the important data is proposed by considering the importance of packet, configuring packet priority and utilizing the settings in routing process. Using this mechanism, network condition can be maintained without congestion in a way of making packet routed through various routes. Additionally, congestion control using packet service time, packet inter-arrival time and buffer utilization enables to reduce packet delay and prevent packet drop. Performance for the proposed mechanism was evaluated by simulation. The simulation results indicate that the proposed mechanism results to reduction of packet delay and produces positive influence in terms of packet loss rate and network lifetime. It implies that the proposed mechanism contributes to maintaining the network condition to be efficient.

The existence of excessively large and too filled network buffers, known as bufferbloat, has recently gained attention as a major performance problem for delay-sensitive applications. Researchers have made three types of suggestions to solve the bufferbloat problem. One is End to End (E2E) congestion control, second is deployment of Active Queue Management (AQM) techniques and third is the combination of above two. However, these solutions either seem impractical or could not obtain good bandwidth utilization. In this paper, we propose a Transmission Control Protocol（TCP）delayed window update mechanism which uses a congestion detection approach to predict the congestion level of networks. When detecting the network congestion is coming, a delayed window update control strategy is adopted to maintain good protocol performance. If the network is non-congested, the mechanism stops work and congestion window is updated based on the original protocol. The simulation experiments are conducted on both high bandwidth and long delay scenario and low bandwidth and short delay scenario. Experiment results show that TCP delayed window update mechanism can effectively improve the performance of the original protocol, decreasing packet losses and queuing delay while guaranteeing transmission efficiency of the whole network. In addition, it can perform good fairness and TCP friendliness.

인터넷은 패킷의 지연시간과 손실에 대한 보장을 제공하지 않기 때문에 일시적인 네트워크 혼잡은 H.264/SVC 스트리밍에 부정적인 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 H.264/SVC 향상 계층을 제거하여 전송율을 제어함으로써 혼잡을 회피하는 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 비디오의 중요도에 따라 스트림을 분류한 후, 스트림의 비트율-왜곡 특성을 이용한 가중치 기반 혼잡 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다. 즉, 제한된 대역폭을 가진 네트워드 노드에서 가중치를 고려한 PSNR의 합을 최대화하기 위해, H.264/SVC 향상 계층의 수를 제어하는 WNS(Weighted Near-Sighted), WFS(Weighted Far-Sighted) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 그리고 시뮬레이션을 통해 가중치 기반 알고리즘의 효용성을 보이고 알고리즘의 특성을 분석한다.
