Multiple classes of traffic with differing and often conflicting requirements arise in an
integrated telecommunications environment as users share the limited existing resources. In …

In Altman and Basar (1998), a dynamic game model of rate-based flow control was
introduced, capturing a scenario in a telecommunication network where M users share a …

The optimal flow control of noncooperative users in multiservice networks is investigated in a
game-theoretic way. We adopt a model that differs from previously considered ones in that a …

Consideration is given to the problem of optimal flow control in a multiclass
telecommunications environment where each user (or class) desires to optimize its …

This paper is concerned with deriving an optimal flow and routing control policy for two-node
parallel link communication networks with multiple competing users. The model assumes …

We consider a noncooperative game framework for combined routing and flow control in a
network of parallel links, where the number of users (players) is arbitrarily large. The utility …

A fundamental problem in connection oriented multiservice networks (ATM and STM) is
finding the optimal policy for call acceptance. One seeks an admission control policy that …

With the power as the performance criterion, a game-theoretical approach is proposed and
analyzed. A network or system optimization solution leads to a Pareto optimal point. In a …

Flow and congestion control allow the users of a telecommunication network to regulate the
traffic that they send into the network in accordance with the quality of service that they …

In noncooperative networks users make control decisions that optimize their individual
performance objectives. Nash equilibria characterize the operating points of such networks …
