A Markovian Model for TCP Analysis in a Differentiated Services Network
Overview In a Differentiated Services network, the use of TCP by an application impacts the service it gets from the network. TCP congestion control algorithms are designed to provide a fair sharing of resources in a best effort network as the current Internet. TCP is not conscious of the new services proposed by DiServ, namely the different priorities packets are injected with into the network. Many schemes have been proposed to support TCP traffic in a DiServ network. These schemes have been often validated with simulations. This paper proposes an analytical model to study the performance of TCP in a DiServ network under the different proposed schemes. The model is based on a Markovian fluid approach.
