Models and Analysis of TCC/AQM Schemes over DiffServ Networks

چکیده
QoS-enabled networks consist of major functions: one is a TCP congestion control (TCC) mechanism at a source/sink node and the other is an active queue management (AQM) scheme at an intermediate node. In this paper, we introduce the major TCC mechanisms and AQM schemes, and provide analytical models and simulation-based comparisons of these TCC/AQM schemes for the purpose of identifying the reciprocal relationship between TCC mechanisms and AQM schemes in QoS-enabled networks. The results show that the equilibrium and dynamics of the underlying network depends on the harmony between the TCC/AQM pairs. The NewReno/PI pair, a feedback-based mechanism encompassing both network and end-systems, can enhance the performance of packet loss and delay sensitive applications. In our opinion, an appropriate combination of active queue management from the network and TCP source reaction would provide an effective solution to the instantaneous network fluctuation which occurs on the Internet.

Enhanced service differentiation for layered video multicast in differentiated service networks
An enhanced network service model for layered video multicast applications is presented for diffserv networks in this work, which consists of enhanced active queue management (AQM) and hierarchial priority marking. It is found from experiments that a straightforward application of the receiver-driven layer multicast (RLM) model to the diffserv network may perform poorer than to the best-effort ...
متن کاملA Differentiated Pricing Framework for Improving the Performance of the Elastic Traffics in Data Networks
Rate allocation has become a demanding task in data networks as diversity in users and traffics proliferate. Most commonly used algorithm in end hosts is TCP. This is a loss based scheme therefore it exhibits oscillatory behavior which reduces network performance. Moreover, since the price for all sessions is based on the aggregate throughput, losses that are caused by TCP affect other sessions...
متن کاملA Fluid-Based Model of Time-Limited TCP Flows in a DiffServ Environment
Abstract — The Differentiated Services (DiffServ DS) architecture allows IP networks to offer different QoS levels to different users and applications. In this architecture, routers in the core network offer the same Per-Hop Behavior (PHB) to all the packets classified as belonging to the same class at the edge of the network. One of the most important standard types of PHB is the Assured Forwa...
متن کاملA Non-equilibrium Analysis & Control Framework for Communication Networks
We present a non-equilibrium analysis and control approach for the Active Queue Management (AQM) problem in communication networks. Using simplified fluid models we carry out a bifurcation study of the complex dynamic queue behavior to show that non-equilibrium methods are essential for analysis and optimization in the AQM problem. We investigate an ergodic theoretic framework for stochastic mo...
متن کاملAn Evaluation Framework For Active Queue Management Schemes
Over the last decade numerous Active Queue Management (AQM) schemes have been proposed in the literature. Many of these studies have been directed towards improving congestion control in best-effort networks. However, there has been a notable lack of standardised performance evaluation of AQM schemes. A rigorous study of the influence of parameterisation on specific schemes and the establishmen...
