This paper asks whether inter-flow contention between congestion control algorithms
(CCAs) is a dominant factor in determining a flow's bandwidth allocation in today's Internet …

Traffic policing is widely used by ISPs to limit their customers' traffic rates. It has long been
believed that a well-tuned traffic policer offers a satisfactory performance for TCP. However …

To improve the user experience of mobile web services, various congestion control
algorithms (CCAs) have been proposed, yet the performance of the application is still …

BBR is a model-based congestion control algorithm that has been widely adopted on the
Internet. Different from loss-based algorithms, BBR features high throughput since it …

Detecting anomalies in networks usually requires packet level traffic capturing and
analysing. Indeed, the observation of emission patterns sheds some light on the kind of …

Congestion Control Algorithms (CCAs) regulate the sending rates of hosts to avoid
congestion in the network. Studies have shown that when flows belonging to different CCAs …

The diversity of deployed applications in data centers leads to a complex traffic mix in the
network. Reconfigurable Data Center Networks (RDCNs) have been designed to fulfill the …

The performance of networked applications can be dramatically impacted by the size of the
buffer at the bottleneck router. Shallow buffers may increase packet losses and decrease …

The Internet is a complex and constantly evolving system, and congestion control algorithms
play a crucial role in ensuring its functioning by managing network performance. These …

When many users and unique applications share a congested edge link (eg, a home
network), everyone wants their own application to continue to perform well despite …
