The network tomography problem requires a remote source to estimate network-internal statistics on individual links within the network. Several techniques have been proposed to pe...
In this paper, we consider a set of HTTP flows using TCP over a common drop-tail link to download files. After each download, a flow waits for a random think time before reques...
Previous scalable protocols for downloading large, popular files from a single server include batching and cyclic multicast. With batching, clients wait to begin receiving a reque...
—Traditionally uncooperative rate control schemes have implied open loop protocols such as UDP, CBR. In this paper we show that closed loop uncooperative rate control schemes als...
The performance of IP networks depends on a wide variety of dynamic conditions. Traffic shifts, equipment failures, planned maintenance, and topology changes in other parts of th...
