Stability and Adaptability of Autonomous Decentralized Flow Control in High-Speed Networks

چکیده
This paper focuses on flow control in high-speed networks. Each node in a network handles its local traffic flow only on the basis of the information it is aware of, but it is preferable that the decision-making of each node leads to high performance of the whole network. To this end, we investigate the relationship between the flow control mechanism of each node and network performance. We consider the situation in which the capacity of a link in the network is changed but individual nodes are not aware of this. Then we investigate the stability and adaptability of the network performance when the capacity of a link is changed, and discuss an appropriate flow control model on the basis of simulation results.

Principle of Autonomous Decentralized Flow Control and Layered Structure of Network Control with Respect to Time Scales
Network control mechanisms in networks can be categorized by the time scales on which an individual control takes effect and they form a layered structure with respect to the time scales. In high-speed networks, the processing speed of each node is high but the propagation delay is the same as in slower networks, because it is constrained by the speed of light. So, the framework of network cont...
متن کاملOn the Stability of Autonomous Decentralized Flow Control in High-Speed Networks with Asymmetric Configurations
In high-speed network, the principle adopted for a timesensitive flow control mechanism should be autonomous decentralized control. In this mechanism, each node in a network handles its local traffic flow only on the basis of the information it is aware of, although it is desirable that the decision-making at each node leads to high performance of the network as a whole. To implement this mecha...

This paper focuses on flow control in high-speed networks. Each node in the networks handles its local traffic flow only on the basis of the information it knows, but it is preferable that the decision-making of each node leads to high performance of the whole network. To this end, we investigated the behavior of packet flow when a node is congested, and show an appropriate flow control model t...
متن کاملThird-order Decentralized Safe Consensus Protocol for Inter-connected Heterogeneous Vehicular Platoons
In this paper, the stability analysis and control design of heterogeneous traffic flow is considered. It is assumed that the traffic flow consists of infinite number of cooperative non-identical vehicular platoons. Two different networks are investigated in stability analysis of heterogeneous traffic flow: 1) inter-platoon network which deals with the communication topology of lead vehicles and...
متن کاملDiffusion-Type Autonomous Decentralized Flow Control for End-to-End Flow in High-Speed Networks
We have proposed diffusion-type flow control as a solution for the extremely time-sensitive flow control required for high-speed networks. In our method of flow control, we design in advance simple and appropriate rules for action at the nodes, and these automatically result in stable and efficient network-wide performance through local interactions between nodes. Specifically, we design the ru...
