Analysis of Congestion Models for TCP Networks

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview The Internet has become a global phenomenon that allows people across the world to ex-change information in a fast and convenient manner. In its journey to its current form, the Internet has evolved from a network research project initiated by US researchers at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to a global network of inter-connected computers. Many services which one take for granted today, such as e-mail and the World Wide Web (WWW), rely on the underlying Internet networking technologies to provide the pervasive Internet services modern society has come to expect. The objective of this thesis is to investigate the development of mathematical models suitable for the analysis and design of TCP congestion control.
