Strategic Defense Initiative (sdi) System Architecture and Key Tradeoff Studies Phase Iic Congestion Control Subsystem

The synchronous Congestion Controlled Sequential Contention Resolution (CCSCR) Algorithm developed here for parallel simultaneous, or asynchronous input and output networks, was motivated by the development of a network operating point, where no livelock or deadlock will occur because of the inclusion of the preventive protocol techniques of the varying sequencing of message service, buffer storage arrangement, and rearrangement. The following three objectives were applied to the development of all possible features of this CCSCR Algorithm: (1) Identify network segments where fragmentation, heavy load, and topological variations and combinations occur under real time conditions. (2) Develop the software theory for linking these algorithm sections together and develop the main contention resolution sequencing algorithm. (3) The two additional artificial intelligence theoretical characteristics of self organization and optimal stopping are included in the sequencing algorithm to enable the determination of the length of time for a routing sequence in the network, and a theoretical development of the time when a message transit stops prior to its normal stopping time. This optimal stopping time determination will occur due to external networking conditions requiring the temporary storage of the present message transit parameters and simulated performance. This CCSCR Software invention provides the mathematical circuit control concepts required at three computer nodes or gateway computer nodes hardware levels; i.e., (1) front end processor level, (2) operating system programming level and (3) operating system arithmetic level, to enable the congestion controlled optimal transmission operation of circuitry at these three
