Receiver-driven Layered Multicast

by Steven McCanne, Van Jacobson, Martin Vetterli , 1996
"... State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-adaptation performs poorly in a heterogeneous multicast environment because there is no single target rate — the conflicti ..."
Abstract - Cited by 737 (22 self) - Add to MetaCart
— the conflicting bandwidth requirements of all receivers cannot be simultaneously satisfied with one transmission rate. If the burden of rate-adaption is moved from the source to the receivers, heterogeneity is accommodated. One approach to receiver-driven adaptation is to combine a layered source coding algorithm

Congestion control for high bandwidth-delay product networks

by Dina Katabi, Mark Handley, Charlie Rohrs - SIGCOMM '02 , 2002
"... Theory and experiments show that as the per-flow product of bandwidth and latency increases, TCP becomes inefficient and prone to instability, regardless of the queuing scheme. This failing becomes increasingly important as the Internet evolves to incorporate very high-bandwidth optical links and mo ..."

bandwidth allocation, high utilization, small standing queue size, and near-zero packet drops, with both steady and highly varying traffic. Additionally, the new protocol does not maintain any per-flow state in routers and requires few CPU cycles per packet, which makes it implementable in high

The Performance of TCP/IP for Networks with High Bandwidth-Delay Products and Random Loss.

by Member, IEEE T V Lakshman , Senior Member, IEEE Upamanyu Madhow - IEEE/ACM Trans. Networking, , 1997
"... Abstract-This paper examines the performance of TCP/IP, the Internet data transport protocol, over wide-area networks (WANs) in which data traffic could coexist with real-time traffic such as voice and video. Specifically, we attempt to develop a basic understanding, using analysis and simulation, ..."

, of the properties of TCP/IP in a regime where: 1) the bandwidth-delay product of the network is high compared to the buffering in the network and 2) packets may incur random loss (e.g., due to transient congestion caused by fluctuations in real-time traffic, or wireless links in the path of the connection

A Scheme for Real-Time Channel Establishment in Wide-Area Networks

by Domenico Ferrari, Dinesh C. Verma - IEEE JOURNAL ON SELECTED AREAS IN COMMUNICATIONS , 1990
"... Multimedia communication involving digital audio and/or digital video has rather strict delay requirements. A real-time channel is defined in this paper as a simplex connection between a source and a destination characterized by parameters representing the performance requirements of the client. A r ..."

Link-Sharing and Resource Management Models for Packet Networks

by Sally Floyd, Van Jacobson , 1995
"... This paper discusses the use of link-sharing mechanisms in packet networks and presents algorithms for hierarchical link-sharing. Hierarchical link-sharing allows multiple agencies, protocol families, or traflic types to share the bandwidth on a tink in a controlled fashion. Link-sharing and real-t ..."

A Field Study of the Software Design Process for Large Systems

by Bill Curtis, Herb Krasner, Neil Iscoe - Communications of the ACM , 1988
"... The problems of designing large software systems were studied through interviewing personnel from 17 large projects. A layered behavioral model is used to analyze how three lgf these problems-the thin spread of application domain knowledge, fluctuating and conflicting requirements, and communication ..."

A Simple Transmit Diversity Technique for Wireless Communications

by S. M. Alamouti , 1998
"... This paper presents a simple two-branch transmit diversity scheme. Using two transmit antennas and one receive antenna the scheme provides the same diversity order as maximal-ratio receiver combining (MRRC) with one transmit antenna, and two receive antennas. It is also shown that the scheme may ea ..."

easily be generalized to two transmit antennas and w receive antennas to provide a diversity order of 2w. The new scheme does not require any bandwidth expansion any feedback from the receiver to the transmitter and its computation complexity is similar to MRRC.

Route Packets, Not Wires: On-Chip Interconnection Networks

by William J. Dally, Brian Towles , 2001
"... Using on-chip interconnection networks in place of ad-hoc global wiring structures the top level wires on a chip and facilitates modular design. With this approach, system modules (processors, memories, peripherals, etc...) communicate by sending packets to one another over the network. The structur ..."
Abstract - Cited by 885 (10 self) - Add to MetaCart
. The structured network wiring gives well-controlled electrical parameters that eliminate timing iterations and enable the use of high-performance circuits to reduce latency and increase bandwidth. The area overhead required to implement an on-chip network is modest, we estimate 6.6%. This paper introduces

Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing

by Charles E. Perkins, Elizabeth M. Royer - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2ND IEEE WORKSHOP ON MOBILE COMPUTING SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS , 1997
"... An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure. In this paper we present Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), a novel algorithm for the operation of such ad-hoc n ..."
Abstract - Cited by 3240 (14 self) - Add to MetaCart
. AODV provides loop-free routes even while repairing broken links. Because the protocol does not require global periodic routing advertisements, the demand on the overall bandwidth available to the mobile nodes is substantially less than in those protocols that do necessitate such advertisements

A Theory of Diagnosis from First Principles

by Raymond Reiter - ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE , 1987

The diagnostic problem is to determine those components of the system which, when assumed to be functioning abnormally, will explain ..."
