— In this paper, we extend the analytical model for the TCP steady state throughput as a function of the network utilization factor, round trip time and packet drop rate for unli...
TCP(α,β) protocols trade the congestion window increase value α for the decrease ratio β , to generate smoother traffic patterns and to maintain a friendly behavior. In this p...
Brewer and Kuszmaul [BK94] demonstrated how barriers and traffic interleaving can alleviate the problem of bulk-transfer performance degradation on the Thinking Machines CM-5, by ...

Overlay routing has been proposed to enhance the reliability and performance of IP networks, since it can bypass congestion and transient outages by forwarding traffic through one ...
Differentiated services architectures are scalable solutions for providing class-based Quality of Service (QoS) over packet switched networks. While qualitative attributes of the o...
