— End-to-end congestion control mechanisms such as those in TCP are not enough to prevent congestion collapse in the Internet (for starters, not all applications might be willing...
We use game theorectic models to show the lack of incentives in the TCP congestion avoidance algorithm and the consequential systemwide network problems. We then propose a Vickery-...
— We investigate the problem of efficient resource control for elastic traffic over the EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) and HCCA (Hybrid Coordination Function HCF - ...
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,...

Many distributed multimedia applications have the ability to adapt to uctuations in the network conditions. By adjusting temporal and spatial quality to available bandwidth, or man...
