This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2017 in the subject Engineering - Computer Engineering, grade: 4.5, , language: English, abstract: In this project, we describe FAST TCP, a new TCP congestion control algorithm for high-speed long-latency networks, from design to implementation. We highlight the approach taken by FAST TCP to address the four difficulties, at both packet and flow levels, which the current TCP implementation has at large windows. We describe the architecture and characterize the equilibrium and stability properties of FAST TCP. We present experimental results comparing our first Linux prototype with TCP Reno, HSTCP, and STCP in terms of throughput, fairness, stability, and responsiveness. FAST TCP aims to rapidly stabilize high-speed long-latency networks into steady, efficient and fair operating points, in dynamic sharing environments, and the preliminary results are produced as output of our project. We also explain our project with the help of an existing real-time example as to explain why we go for the TCP download rather than FTP download. The real-time example that is chosen is Torrents which we use for Bulk and safe-downloading. We finally conclude with the results of our new congestion control algorithm aided with the graphs obtained during its simulation in NS2.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a foreword by Kannan Kothandaraman "This is the first book about QOS that I actually enjoyed reading precisely because the authors focused on real-life QoS and not in academic discussions about it." Per Nihlen, IP Network Manager, NORDUnet The new authoritative, practical guide to delivering QOS guarantees This new benchmark in quality of service (QOS) study is written by two experts in the field who deal with QOS predicaments every day. The authors not only provide a lucid understanding of modern theory of QOS mechanisms in packet networks but how to apply them in practice. In addition, they detail the QOS management features found in modern routers used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and large enterprise companies and networks, all in an effort to enable network managers and engineers to configure production networks with a quality of service guarantee. The book's focus on addressing network behavior ("real effects") in relation to the configuration of network elements (routers and switches), is both refreshing and insightful. QOS-Enabled Networks contains up-to-date coverage of: QOS mechanisms in packet networks and how to apply them in practice QOS management features now common in modern-day routers How network behavior is related to configuration of network elements Layer 2 VPN and QOS QOS in mobile LTE networks QOS-Enabled Networks is an invaluable guide for networking engineers needing to provide QOS services for service providers, ISPs and large enterprises, as well as for network design and operations engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: QoS, short for "quality of service, is one of the most important goals a network designer or administrator will have. Ensuring that the network runs at optimal precision with data remaining accurate, traveling fast, and to the correct user are the main objectives of QoS. The various media that fly across the network including voice, video, and data have different idiosyncrasies that try the dimensions of the network. This malleable network architecture poses an always moving potential problem for the network professional.The authors have provided a comprehensive treatise on this subject. They have included topics such as traffic engineering, capacity planning, and admission control. This book provides real world case studies of QoS in multiservice networks. These case studies remove the mystery behind QoS by illustrating the how, what, and why of implementing QoS within networks. Readers will be able to learn from the successes and failures of these actual working designs and configurations. - Helps readers understand concepts of IP QoS by presenting clear descriptions of QoS components, architectures, and protocols - Directs readers in the design and deployment of IP QoS networks through fully explained examples of actual working designs - Contains real life case studies which focus on implementation

Download or read book Stabilizing RED Queue Oscillation Using the Logistic Map in AutoRED Mechanism written by Jiyoung Oh and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Active queue management (AQM) is one of the ways to control congestion at Internet Routers. One of the widely used AQM's is the random early detection (RED) scheme. The RED scheme suffers from chaotic queue oscillation problem particularly in a highly congested network. It causes jitter, high queuing delay when the queue size stays high, and underutilization when the queue size is low. Recently AutoRED algorithm has been proposed as a solution to the chaotic queue oscillation problem in that AutoRED calculates the weight, wq, continuously as opposed to a constant value set by a user [1]. AutoRED displays the reduction of the chaotic queue oscillation by network performance metrics and queue behavior graphs, but there has been no metric known to measure the degree of queue oscillation in terms of its effect on the Quality of Service (QoS). The purpose of the present study is twofold. Firstly, the possibility of an improvement by modifying AutoRED using a Logistic Map is investigated. This new technique introduces a user control parameter that can contribute to further improvements. Secondly, a new metric is proposed to show the degree of queue oscillation with regards to its effect on the QoS. The experiments are done by applying the new technique to network simulations in TCP only and TCP and UDP combined traffic environments. The results are compared with RED and AutoRED with regards to the proposed metric coupled with the network performance measurements and the statistical measurements of the queue behavior."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Book excerpt: Internet-based applications and services are pervading everyday life. Moreover, the growing popularity of real-time, time-critical and mission-critical applications set new challenges to the Internet community. The requirement for reducing response time, and therefore latency control is increasingly emphasized. This thesis seeks to reduce queueing delay through active queue management. While mathematical studies and research simulations reveal that complex trade-off relationships exist among performance indices such as throughput, packet loss ratio and delay, etc., this thesis intends to find an improved active queue management algorithm which emphasizes delay control without trading much on other performance indices such as throughput and packet loss ratio. The thesis observes that in TCP/IP network, packet loss ratio is a major reflection of congestion severity or load. With a properly functioning active queue management algorithm, traffic load will in general push the feedback system to an equilibrium point in terms of packet loss ratio and throughput. On the other hand, queue length is a determinant factor on system delay performance while has only a slight influence on the equilibrium. This observation suggests the possibility of reducing delay while maintaining throughput and packet loss ratio relatively unchanged. The thesis also observes that queue length fluctuation is a reflection of both load changes and natural fluctuation in arriving bit rate. Monitoring queue length fluctuation alone cannot distinguish the difference and identify congestion status; and yet identifying this difference is crucial in finding out situations where average queue size and hence queueing delay can be properly controlled and reasonably reduced. However, many existing active queue management algorithms only monitor queue length, and their control policies are solely based on this measurement. In our studies, our novel finding is that the arriving bit rate distribution of all sources contains information which can be a better indication of congestion status and has a correlation with traffic burstiness. And this thesis develops a simple and scalable way to measure its two most important characteristics, namely the mean ii and the variance of the arriving rate distribution. The measuring mechanism is based on a Zombie List mechanism originally proposed and deployed in Stabilized RED to estimate the number of flows and identify misbehaving flows. This thesis modifies the original zombie list measuring mechanism, makes it capable of measuring additional variables. Based on these additional measurements, this thesis proposes a novel modification to the RED algorithm. It utilizes a robust adaptive mechanism to ensure that the system reaches proper equilibrium operating points in terms of packet loss ratio and queueing delay under various loads. Furthermore, it identifies different congestion status where traffic is less bursty and adapts RED parameters in order to reduce average queue size and hence queueing delay accordingly. Using ns-2 simulation platform, this thesis runs simulations of a single bottleneck link scenario which represents an important and popular application scenario such as home access network or SoHo. Simulation results indicate that there are complex trade-off relationships among throughput, packet loss ratio and delay; and in these relationships delay can be substantially reduced whereas trade-offs on throughput and packet loss ratio are negligible. Simulation results show that our proposed active queue management algorithm can identify circumstances where traffic is less bursty and actively reduce queueing delay with hardly noticeable sacrifice on throughput and packet loss ratio performances. In conclusion, our novel approach enables the application of adaptive techniques to more RED parameters including those affecting queue occupancy and hence queueing delay. The new modification to RED algorithm is a scalable approach and does not introduce additional protocol overhead. In general it brings the benefit of substantially reduced delay at the cost of limited processing overhead and negligible degradation in throughput and packet loss ratio. However, our new algorithm is only tested on responsive flows and a single bottleneck scenario. Its effectiveness on a combination of responsive and non-responsive flows as well as in more complicated network topology scenarios is left for future work.

Download or read book Some Active Queue Management Methods for Controlling Packet Queueing Delay written by Mahmud H. Etbega Mohamed and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally the Internet is used for the following applications: FTP, e-mail and Web traffic. However in the recent years the Internet is increasingly supporting emerging applications such as IP telephony, video conferencing and online games. These new applications have different requirements in terms of throughput and delay than traditional applications. For example, interactive multimedia applications, unlike traditional applications, have more strict delay constraints and less strict loss constraints. Unfortunately, the current Internet offers only a best-effort service to all applications without any consideration to the applications specific requirements. In this thesis three existing Active Queue Management (AQM) mechanisms are modified by incorporating into these a control function to condition routers for better Quality of Service (QoS). Specifically, delay is considered as the key QoS metric as it is the most important metric for real-time multimedia applications. The first modified mechanism is Drop Tail (DT), which is a simple mechanism in comparison with most AQM schemes. A dynamic threshold has been added to DT in order to maintain packet queueing delay at a specified value. The modified mechanism is referred to as Adaptive Drop Tail (ADT). The second mechanism considered is Early Random Drop (ERD) and, iii in a similar way to ADT, a dynamic threshold has been used to keep the delay at a required value, the main difference being that packets are now dropped probabilistically before the queue reaches full capacity. This mechanism is referred to as Adaptive Early Random Drop (AERD). The final mechanism considered is motivated by the well known Random Early Detection AQM mechanism and is effectively a multi-threshold version of AERD in which packets are dropped with a linear function between the two thresholds and the second threshold is moveable in order to change the slope of the dropping function. This mechanism is called Multi Threshold Adaptive Early Random Drop (MTAERD) and is used in a similar way to the other mechanisms to maintain delay around a specified level. The main focus with all the mechanisms is on queueing delay, which is a significant component of end-to-end delay, and also on reducing the jitter (delay variation) A control algorithm is developed using an analytical model that specifies the delay as a function of the queue threshold position and this function has been used in a simulation to adjust the threshold to an effective value to maintain the delay around a specified value as the packet arrival rate changes over time. iv A two state Markov Modulated Poisson Process is used as the arrival process to each of the three systems to introduce burstiness and correlation of the packet inter-arrival times and to present sudden changes in the arrival process as might be encountered when TCP is used as the transport protocol and step changes the size of its congestion window. In the investigations it is assumed the traffic source is a mixture of TCP and UDP traffic and that the mechanisms conserved apply to the TCP based data. It is also assumed that this consists of the majority proportion of the total traffic so that the control mechanisms have a significant effect on controlling the overall delay. The three mechanisms are evaluated using a Java framework and results are presented showing the amount of improvement in QoS that can be achieved by the mechanisms over their non-adaptive counterparts. The mechanisms are also compared with each other and conclusions drawn.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To support the myriad of envisioned communication products of the future, there is a need to develop a network infrastructure that can provide larger bandwidth, with better control of quality of service (QoS). However, with increasing demand for applications running over packet networks, congestion at the intermediate nodes (e.g., routers and switches) can be a serious problem. Consequences include long delays, large delay variation and high packet loss rates. Different solutions requiring varying levels of modification to the currently used algorithms have been proposed both for responsive (e.g., TCP) and unresponsive (e.g., UDP) protocols. However, most of the solutions are either too complicated to implement in real life or not general enough to be applicable to an arbitrary network topology. In this thesis, we investigate two mechanisms - active queue management (AQM), and scheduling - that can improve QoS in the packet networks. AQM techniques attempt to prevent congestion and regulate the queue length by sending congestion signals (i.e., dropping and/or marking packets) in a proactive manner, which would eventually cause the senders to decrease their sending rates. We use an analytic model derived for TCP in the literature to develop an AQM scheme that not only controls the queue length at the intermediate nodes but also distributes the resources fairly between the users. We present two different schemes that have different levels of complexity and performance. We also propose a distributed networking scheme that improves the performance of our new AQM algorithms. Although AQM schemes work well with responsive protocols such as TCP, the performance degrades for unresponsive protocols since unresponsive protocols do not change their packet sending rate in response to the congestion notifications sent by the network. Scheduling algorithms can regulate both responsive and unresponsive flows and can also provide guarantees on some QoS parameters, such as latency a.

Book excerpt: Network routing can be broadly categorized into Internet routing, PSTN routing, and telecommunication transport network routing. This book systematically considers these routing paradigms, as well as their interoperability. The authors discuss how algorithms, protocols, analysis, and operational deployment impact these approaches. A unique feature of the book is consideration of both macro-state and micro-state in routing; that is, how routing is accomplished at the level of networks and how routers or switches are designed to enable efficient routing. In reading this book, one will learn about 1) the evolution of network routing, 2) the role of IP and E.164 addressing in routing, 3) the impact on router and switching architectures and their design, 4) deployment of network routing protocols, 5) the role of traffic engineering in routing, and 6) lessons learned from implementation and operational experience. This book explores the strengths and weaknesses that should be considered during deployment of future routing schemes as well as actual implementation of these schemes. It allows the reader to understand how different routing strategies work and are employed and the connection between them. This is accomplished in part by the authors' use of numerous real-world examples to bring the material alive. Bridges the gap between theory and practice in network routing, including the fine points of implementation and operational experience Routing in a multitude of technologies discussed in practical detail, including, IP/MPLS, PSTN, and optical networking Routing protocols such as OSPF, IS-IS, BGP presented in detail A detailed coverage of various router and switch architectures A comprehensive discussion about algorithms on IP-lookup and packet classification Accessible to a wide audience due to its vendor-neutral approach
