Modeling TCP and High Speed TCP: A Nonlinear Extension to AIMD Mechanisms
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose two modeling approaches of AIMD congestion control mechanisms. The first separates the increase and decrease parts where as the second describes the rate evolution as a continuous process governed by a differential equation. We relate the approaches and show that the second one is an averaged approximation of the first one. The objective of this paper is twofold: model a class of (stable) generalized TCP protocols as a nonlinear extension of AIMD mechanisms, and in particular to analyze stability of Floyd’s HighSpeed TCP. The class of models studied will be useful for control design and tuning.

H-TCP: A framework for congestion control in high-speed and long-distance networks
In this paper we present a new AIMD congestion control algorithm, H-TCP, that is suitable for deployment in high speed and long distance networks as well as conventional networks. H-TCP generalises the AIMD strategy to significantly improve the manner in which responsiveness and efficiency scale with path bandwidth-delay product and level of queue provisioning within the network. The performanc...

متن کاملA Comparison of Equation-Based and AIMD Congestion Control
This paper considers AIMD-based (Additive-Increase Multiplicative-Decrease) congestion control mechanisms that are TCP-compatible (i.e., that compete reasonably fairly with TCP), but that reduce their sending rate less sharply than does TCP in response to a single packet drop. The paper then briefly compares these smoother AIMD-based congestion control mechanisms with TFRC (TCP-Friendly Rate Co...
متن کاملTwo Problems of TCP AIMD Congestion Control
AIMD (additive increase and multiplicative decrease) algorithm has been used in many congestion control protocols, including TCP in the Internet. In this paper, we compare AIMD and MAIMD (multiplicative additive increase and multiplicative decrease). Our evaluation shows that the convergence speeds to fair states of AIMD and MAIMD are close to each other. However, MAIMD has some advantages. For...
متن کاملAnalysis of Scalable TCP in the presence of Markovian Losses
In high speed networks, the standard TCP’s AIMD algorithm was observed to be inefficient in utilizing the link capacity. As a result of which several proposals such as High-Speed TCP, FAST and Scalable TCP, were put forward. In contrast to the additive increase multiplicative decrease algorithm used in the standard TCP, Scalable TCP uses a multiplicative increase multiplicative decrease (MIMD) ...
