Abstract:
This paper discusses flow control in networks, in which sources control their rates based on feedback signals received from the network links. This feature, present in current protocols such as TCP, has only recently been extensively studied from an analytical perspective. In particular, we are motivated by recent work that shows that TCP and its variants are prone to instabilities when combined with network delays and, more surprisingly, with increases in network capacity. In this paper we develop a congestion control system which is arbitrarily scalable, in the sense that its stability is maintained for arbitrary network topologies and arbitrary amounts of delay. Such a system can be implemented in a decentralized way with information currently available in networks plus a small amount of additional signaling. 1
