Abstract--The current framework of network utility maximization for rate allocation and its price-based algorithms assumes that each link provides a fixed-size transmission "p...
In this paper, we present a model for TCP/IP ow control mechanism. The rate at which data is transmitted increases linearly in time until a packet loss is detected. At that point,...

— Rate control for congestion mitigation and avoidance has received significant attention in the sensor networks literature. Existing rate control schemes dynamically assign rat...
In this paper we present a general hybrid systems modeling framework to describe the flow of traffic in communication networks. To characterize network behavior, these models use...
— In multihop wireless networks where a random access MAC scheme such as CSMA/CA is used, nodes greedily compete in a distributed manner and are unaware of the interference they ...
