Abstract

In Chap. 5, we analyzed the basic networking phenomena related to controlling the flow of data in the network in which the feedback information about the network state is accessible for input rate adaptation at discrete-time instants only. We considered the problem of regulating the transmission rate in a single connection. In this chapter, we study a more complex setting in which the controller placed at the bottleneck node regulates the flow of data in multiple connections originating at various sources. It is assumed that the controlled connections can be characterized by different round-trip times, which is a typical situation in real networks. Consequently, the model developed in Sect. 5.1 for the case of a single-flow needs to be extended to cover the case of simultaneous transmission rate control in multiple connections.
