| Summary: | Congestion control is one of the fundamental issues in
computer networks. Without proper congestion control
mechanisms there is the possibility of inefficient
utilization of resources, ultimately leading to network
collapse. Hence congestion control is an effort to adapt
the performance of a network to changes in the traffic
load without adversely affecting users perceived utilities. AIMD (Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease) is the best algorithm among the set of liner algorithms because it reflects good efficiency as well as good fairness. Our control model is based on the assumption of the original AIMD algorithm; we show that both efficiency and fairness of AIMD can be improved. We call our approach is New AIMD. We present experimental results with TCP that match the
expectation of our theoretical analysis. |
