In October of'86, the Internet had the first of what became a series of'congestion collapses'.
During this period, the data throughput from LBL to UC Berkeley (sites separated by 400 …

With 26 entirely new and 5 extensively revised chapters out of the total of 39, the Mobile
Communications Handbook, Third Edition presents an in-depth and up-to-date overview of …

The author studies a simple strategy, proposed independently by EL Hahne and RG
Gallager (1986) and MGH Katevenis (1987), for fairly allocating link capacity in a point-to …

This paper presents the design, implementation, and performance of a reliable multicast
transport protocol (RMTP). The RMTP is based on a hierarchical structure in which receivers …

As the Internet becomes increasingly heterogeneous, the issue of congestion control
becomes ever more important. In order to maintain good network performance, mechanisms …

This paper describes the design and implementation of a multi-cast transport protocol called
RMTP. RMTP provides sequenced, lossless delivery of bulk data from one sender to a group …

In heterogeneous networks, achieving congestion avoidance is difficult because the
congestion feedback from one subnetwork may have no meaning to sources on other …

We propose a scheme for congestion avoidance in networks using a connectionless
protocol at the network layer. The scheme uses a minimal amount of feedback from the …

Popular myths that cheaper memory, high-speed links and high-speed processors will solve
the problem of congestion in computer networks are shown to be false. A simple definition …

Widespread use of computer networks and the use of varied technology for the
interconnection of computers has made congestion a significant problem. In this report, we …
