Internet congestion control

A linear multivariable control look

Abstract

The working mechanism of today’s Internet is a feedback system, which has the responsibilities of managing the allocation of bandwidth resources among competing traffic flows and controlling the congestion. Congestion control mechanisms in the Internet represent some of the largest deployed artificial feedback systems. The main aim of this chapter is to give an outline for the Internet congestion control from the perspective of a linear multivariable control system. We bring this subject into a control domain by looking at and those between the dynamics of individual flow rates and the dynamics of aggregate flow rates, the transferring relations between link price ...
