Active queue management (AQM) and congestion control form the backbone of modern network performance optimisation. By dynamically regulating queue lengths in routers, these techniques pre-empt ...

Advances in congestion control and performance optimisation are critical to ensuring robust and efficient data transmission across an ever-expanding range of network environments. Contemporary ...

When users want to send data over the internet faster than the network can handle, congestion can occur — the same way traffic congestion snarls the morning commute into a big city. Computers and ...

Researchers discovered that congestion control algorithms designed to ensure multiple users sending data over a network do so fairly are actually unable to avoid situations where some users are ...
