Abstract— Internet routers require buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. The buffers need to be fast, and so ideally they should be small enough to use fast memory ...
We study the interaction between the MIMD (Multiplicative Increase Multiplicative Decrease) congestion control and a bottleneck router with Drop Tail buffer. We consider the probl...

Famous rule-of-thumb states that a buffer sized at B = RTT × BW, where RTT is the average round trip time and BW is the bandwidth of output link is necessary in order to achieve ...

— The packet losses imposed by IP networks can cause long and erratic recovery delays, since senders must often use conservative loss detection and retransmission mechanisms. Thi...
