Our scheme is based on the framework of Monotonic Response Function (MRF), can be used to bound the sending rate of a source within a predefined interval and provide very smooth traffic, and is suitable for multimedia applications over the Internet. As our scheme is also very simple and TCP-friendly, it is easy to be deployed over the current Internet. We verify our scheme with experimental studies.展开更多

In this algorithm, RTT is observed at the receiver through the use of probe APPpackets, and the control interval is chosen based on the self-similar nature of MPEG2 traffic . Inaddition, the estimated receiving rate is used as an indication to the network status when nopacket loss is detected . In our simulations, a friendliness of 0.94 is obtained, and the videoquality fluctuations are acceptable with this control algorithm.展开更多

Therefore, differentiating the cause is important for helping transport protocols take actions to control congestion only when the loss is caused by congestion. In this article, an end-to-end loss differentiation mechanism is proposed to improve the transmission performance of transmission control protocol （TCP）-friendly rate control （TFRC） protocol. Its key design is the introduction of the outstanding machine learning algorithm - the support vector machine （SVM） into the network domain to perform multi-metric joint loss differentiation. The SVM is characterized by using end-to-end indicators for input, such as the relative one-way trip time and the inter-arrival time of packets fore-and-aft the loss, while requiring no support from intermediate network apparatus. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the loss differentiation algorithm with various network configurations, such as with different competing flows, wireless loss rate and queue size. The results show that the proposed classifier is effective under most scenarios, and that its performance is superior to the ZigZag, mBiaz and spike （ZBS） scheme.展开更多
