ABSTRACT

Recently there have been many measures proposed to tackle the problem of congestion in computer networks. In this paper, we first analyze some of the measures and then present a new scheme in which the optimal operating point is obtained by evaluation of throughput gradient and resource sharing is adjusted only at the beginning and the end of a connection. Simulation results show that the scheme converges to an optimal operating point quickly and fairly.
