Enhanced Random Early Detection (ENRED)

An Improvement over Random Early Detection Algorithm: A Self-Tuning Approach

Random Early Detection (RED) is one of the most commonly used Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithms that is recommended by IETF for deployment in the network. Although RED provides low average queuing delay and high throughput at the same time, but effectiveness of RED is highly sensitive to the RED parameters setting. As network condition varies largely, setting RED's parameters with fixed ...

Refined Design of Random Early Detection Gateways

Random Early Detection (RED) was proposed as an active gateway queue-management mechanism. This paper proposes to alter the RED design guideline that unconditionally allows transient congestion, and evaluates its impacts. This unconditional allowance of transient congestion is shown to be harmful when the queue is near full, because it causes buffer overflow at a gateway. Buffer overflow at a g...

Analysis of Adaptive Random Early Detection (ARED)

Abstract— Recently TCP/RED networks are shown to exhibit a rich set of nonlinear behaviors, leading to instabilities. In order to address some of these issues Floyd et al. have proposed an adaptive version of RED, named ARED. In this paper we analytically demonstrate that ARED has some desirable properties compared to RED. First, we show that the stability of the ARED does not depend on the net...
