Multiplexing TCP Traffic Over Wide-Area ATM Networks
Overview This paper explores the effects of network-level multiplexing policies on application-level performance in the context of wide-area networks that carry small fixed-size cells. An ATM network is simulated with traffic sources, traffic sinks, routers, switches, and links. Sources obey new empirical models of network applications and use the TCP transport level protocol with the slow-start congestion control algorithm. The paper reports on the delay and throughput achieved when the network separates traffic by application-level conversation, when it separates traffic by application type, and when it treats all traffic the same way. A multiplexing policy that separates traffic by conversation and services queues on a cell-by-cell round-robin basis is superior to policies that separate traffic to a lesser degree and use first-in first-out queuing.
