Abstract
Today’s Internet only provides best-effort service for all traffics. The network is not able to guarantee the quality of service required by an application that demands more stringent response in terms of delay, jitters, bandwidth and etc. It is well accepted that, the deployment of QoS-aware technologies is a key factor for the continued success of the Internet. In this paper, we propose a Fair Intelligent Congestion Control Resource Discovery (FICCRD) protocol on TCP based network whereby a mechanism is employed at core routers to determine available network resources and convey this information to edge routers. At the edge routers, an intelligent control algorithm is employed to assist the TCP to maximize its traffic over the underlying network. The key ideas are to integrate available network resources in estimating connections’ fair share; to create feedback control loops between edge routers; to employ a special Resource Discovery (RD) packet to collect and convey en route router state information; and to employ intelligent algorithms to match a TCP connection’s sending rate to the rate at which the underlying network can support. We demonstrate that FICCRD protocol is effective, fair, flexible and can be easily extended for QoS control of the future Internet.
