An Investigation paper on Congestion Control Policy

In the advancement of network technology traffic affects performance factors like file synchronization, communication throughput and overall all the scenario where one are having continues connectivity of business to the rectifying organizations, all the business functionality are going for the achievement of paperless communication infrastructure where one are deploying all his working by the internet technology such high speed network communication infrastructure always required well suited congestion less architecture scheme to achieve quality of services ,In the field of different communication area there are many applications has be running at present for all type of users likesenior, junior and all business users categories. Network proposed many protocols and algorithm for the improvement in flow of the network,Ethernet project 802 and protocols series 802.11a/b/c/d/e has been working at network layer in which user’s found some times network work well with priorities choice of network connection but sometimesstruggles with the same.To analyze the actual report of congestion policies here author of the paper are presenting analytical study so that one can understand the lack of functionality in communication with specific network implementations

Optimal joint routing and link scheduling for real-time traffic in TDMA Wireless Mesh Networks

We investigate the problem of joint routing and link scheduling in Time-Division Multiple Access (TDMA) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) carrying real-time traffic. We propose a framework that always computes a feasible solution (i.e. a set of paths and link activations) if there exists one, by optimally solving a mixed integer-non linear problem. Such solution can be computed in minutes or tens thereof for e.g. grids of up to 4x4 nodes. We also propose heuristics based on Lagrangian decomposition to compute suboptimal solutions considerably faster and/or for larger WMNs, up to about 50 nodes. We show that the heuristic solutions are near-optimal, and we exploit them to investigate the optimal placement of one or more gateways from a delay bound perspective

On the schedulability of deadline-constrained traffic in TDMA Wireless Mesh Networks

In this paper, we evaluate the schedulability of traffic with arbitrary end-to-end deadline constraints in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). We formulate the problem as a mixed integer linear optimization problem, and show that, depending on the flow aggregation policy used in the network, the problem can be either convex or non-convex. We optimally solve the problem in both cases, and prove that the schedulability does depend on the aggregation policy. This allows us to derive rules of thumb to identify which policy improves the schedulability with a given traffic. Furthermore, we propose a heuristic solution strategy that allows good suboptimal solutions to the scheduling problem to be computed in relatively small times, comparable to those required for online admission control in relatively large WMNs

An STDMA-Based Framework for QoS Provisioning in Wireless Mesh Networks

Providing strong QoS guarantees for wireless multi-hop networks is very challenging, due to many factors such as use of a shared communication medium, variability in wireless link quality, and so on. However, wireless mesh technology gives the opportunity to alleviate some of these problems, due to lack of mobility in the wireless infrastructure, and presence of natural centralization points in the network. The main contribution of this paper is the definition of a simple framework that exploits these features to provide provable, strong QoS guarantees to network clients. In particular, admitted clients are guaranteed a certain minimum bandwidth and maximum delay on their connections. The framework is based on STDMA scheduling at the MAC layer, which is periodically executed at the network manager to adapt to changes in traffic demand. While scheduling computation is centralized, admission control is performed locally at the wireless backbone nodes, thus reducing signaling. We propose two bandwidth distribution and related admission control policies, which are at opposite ends of the network utilization/spatial fairness trade-off. Through extensive simulations, we show that the proposed framework achieves its design goals of providing strong QoS guarantees to VoIP clients while not sacrificing throughput in a realistic mesh network scenario, also in presence of highly unbalanced load at the backbone nodes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first proposal with similar features for wireless mesh networks

Delay-aware Link Scheduling and Routing in Wireless Mesh Networks

Resource allocation is a critical task in computer networks because of their capital-intensive nature. In this thesis we apply operations research tools and technologies to model, solve and analyze resource allocation problems in computer networks with real-time traffic. We first study Wireless Mesh Networks, addressing the problem of link scheduling with end-to-end delay constraints. Exploiting results obtained with the Network Calculus framework, we formulate the problem as an integer non-linear optimization problem. We show that the feasibility of a link schedule does depend on the aggregation framework. We also address the problem of jointly solving the routing and link scheduling problem optimally, taking into account end-to-end delay guarantees. We provide guidelines and heuristics. As a second contribution, we propose a time division approach in CSMA MAC protocols in the context of 802.11 WLANs. By grouping wireless clients and scheduling time slots to these groups, not only the delay of packet transmission can be decreased, but also the goodput of multiple WLANs can be largely increased. Finally, we address a resource allocation problem in wired networks for guaranteed-delay traffic engineering. We formulate and solve the problem under different latency models. Global optimization let feasible schedules to be computed with instances where local resource allocation schemes would fail. We show that this is the case even with a case-study network, and at surprisingly low average loads
