AIRA: Additive Increase Rate Accelerator
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose AIRA, an Additive Increase Rate Accelerator. AIRA extends AIMD functionality towards adaptive increase rates, depending on the level of network contention and bandwidth availability. In this context, acceleration grows when resource availability is detected by goodput/throughput measurements and slows down when increased throughput does not translate into increased goodput as well. Thus, the gap between throughput and goodput determines the behavior of the rate accelerator. We study the properties of the extended model and propose, based on analysis and simulation, appropriate rate decrease and increase rules. Furthermore, we study conditional rules to guarantee operational success even in the presence of symptomatic, extra-ordinary events. We show that analytical rules can be derived for accelerating, either positively or negatively, the increase rate of AIMD in accordance with network dynamics. Indeed, we find that the ”blind”, fixed Additive Increase rule can become an obstacle for the performance of TCP, especially when contention increases. Instead, sophisticated, contention-aware additive increase rates may preserve system stability and reduce retransmission effort, without reducing the goodput performance of TCP.

متن کاملInflation of the Aira Caldera (Japan) detected over Kokubu urban area using SAR interferometry ERS data
Nine ERS-1 and ERS-2 descending orbit data acquired over Aira Caldera between June 1995 and November 1998 were used to create 36 differential interferograms. Although the interferograms exhibit a relatively low level of coherence, even for couples sampling short time intervals (6 months), Synthetique Aperture Radar (SAR) observations reveal a distinct range change pattern over Kokubu urban area...
متن کاملClassroom note: Almost-isosceles right-angled triangles
We provide an elementary method to show that there exist infinitely many right-angled triangles with integral sides in which the lengths of the two non-hypotenuse sides differ by 1. The method also enables us to construct all such right-angled triangles recursively. 1. Introduction There does not exist any isoceles right-angled triangle with integral sides. Does there exist a right-angled trian...
متن کاملPersonalized advice for enhancing well-being using automated impulse response analysis - AIRA
The attention for personalized mental health care is thriving. Research data specific to the individual, such as time series sensor data or data from intensive longitudinal studies, is relevant from a research perspective, as analyses on these data can reveal the heterogeneity among the participants and provide more precise and individualized results than with group-based methods. However, usin...
