Synopsis

This book focuses on Internet congestion control with special emphasis given to signalling and network architecture. The author introduces a protocol called Performance Transparency Protocol (PTP) and a congestion control mechanism called Congestion Avoidance with Distributed Proportional Control (CADPC), as well as providing: a complete specification of PTP; simulation results that show how CADPC/PTP outperforms several current alternatives; a method of using the well-known Chiu/Jain vector diagrams for analysis and design; a short and easily comprehensible introduction to Congestion Control and Quality of Service; and an overview of explicit signalling mechanisms between end points and the network.

Synopsis

This book focuses on Internet congestion control with special emphasis given to signaling and network architecture. The author introduces a new protocol called Performance Transparency Protocol (PTP) and a congestion control mechanism called Congestion Avoidance with Distributed Proportional Control (CADPC), as well as provides: complete specification of PTP; new simulation results that show how CADPC/PTP outperforms several current alternatives; a new method of using the well-known Chiu/Jain vector diagrams for analysis and design; a short and easily comprehensible introduction to Congestion Control and Quality of Service; an overview of explicit signaling mechanisms between end points and the network. "Scalable Performance Signalling and Congestion Avoidance" provides a wealth of information on Internet and network congestion avoidance for network engineers and researchers.
