The majority of the traffic (bytes) flowing over the Internet today have been attributed to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). This strong presence of TCP has recently spu...
High contention of flows is associated with unstable network behavior and unmanageable resource administration, i.e., convergence to equilibrium becomes a difficult task. In this ...
— The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), the most widely used transport protocol over the Internet, has been advertised to implement fairness between flows competing for the s...

—We propose a mechanism that incorporates network coding into TCP with only minor changes to the protocol stack, thereby allowing incremental deployment. In our scheme, the sourc...

In this paper we present a general hybrid systems modeling framework to describe the flow of traffic in communication networks. To characterize network behavior, these models use...
