Tan, LianshengYuan, CaoZukerman, Moshe2015-12-081089-7798http://hdl.handle.net/1885/37934We propose a theoretical price-based congestion control scheme that comprises a link algorithm, a way to set an aggregate virtual link price, and a source algorithm based on a modified FAST TCP window updating mechanism. We prove that the new scheme achieves (alpha, eta)-proportional fairness and demonstrate, via ns2 simulations, performance improvement over a FAST-TCP-based congestion control scheme.Keywords: Fire fighting equipment; Congestion control; Fairness; FAST TCP; Internet congestion controls; Ns2 simulations; Performance improvements; Proportional fairnesses; Virtual links; Transmission control protocol Congestion control; Fairness; FAST TCP200810.1109/LCOMM.2008.0721732016-02-24
