Sistem Kendali Kongesti Di Internet
Internet Congestion Control System. Internet congestion occurs when resource demands exceeds the network capacity. But, it is not the only reason. Congestion can happen on some users because some others user has higher sending rate. Then some users with lower sending rate will experience congestion. This partial congestion is caused by inexactly feedback. At this moment congestion are solved by the involvement of two controlling mechanisms. These mechanisms are flow/congestion control in the TCP source and Active Queue Management (AQM) in the router. AQM will provide feedback to the source a kind of indication for the occurrence of the congestion in the router, whereas the source will adapt the sending rate appropriate with the feedback. These mechanisms are not enough to solve internet congestion problem completely. Therefore, this paper will explain internet congestion causes, weakness, and congestion control technique that researchers have been developed. To describe congestion system mechanisms and responses, the system will be simulated by Matlab

Experience-driven Control For Networking And Computing
Modern networking and computing systems have become very complicated and highly dynamic, which makes them hard to model, predict and control. In this thesis, we aim to study system control problems from a whole new perspective by leveraging emerging Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), to develop experience-driven model-free approaches, which enable a network or a device to learn the best way to control itself from its own experience (e.g., runtime statistics data) rather than from accurate mathematical models, just as a human learns a new skill (e.g., driving, swimming, etc). To demonstrate the feasibility and superiority of this experience-driven control design philosophy, we present the design, implementation, and evaluation of multiple DRL-based control frameworks on two fundamental networking problems, Traffic Engineering (TE) and Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP) congestion control, as well as one cutting-edge application, resource co-scheduling for Deep Neural Network (DNN) models on mobile and edge devices with heterogeneous hardware.
We first propose DRL-TE, a DRL-based framework that enables experience-driven networking for TE. DRL-TE maximizes a widely-used utility function by jointly learning network environment and its dynamics, and making decisions under the guidance of powerful DNNs. We propose two new techniques, TE-aware exploration and actor-critic-based prioritized experience replay, to optimize the general DRL framework particularly for TE. Furthermore, we propose an Actor-Critic-based Transfer learning framework for TE, ACT-TE, which solves a practical problem in experience-driven networking: when network configurations are changed, how to train a new DRL agent to effectively and quickly adapt to the new environment. In the new network environment, ACT-TE leverages policy distillation to rapidly learn a new control policy from both old knowledge (i.e., distilled from the existing agent) and new experience (i.e., newly collected samples).
In addition, we propose DRL-CC to enable experience-driven congestion control for MPTCP. DRL-CC utilizes a single (instead of multiple independent) DRL agent to dynamically and jointly perform congestion control for all active MPTCP flows on an end host with the objective of maximizing the overall utility. The novelty of our design is to utilize a flexible recurrent neural network, LSTM, under a DRL framework for learning a representation for all active flows and dealing with their dynamics. Moreover, we integrate the above LSTM-based representation network into an actor-critic framework for continuous congestion control, which applies the deterministic policy gradient method to train actor, critic, and LSTM networks in an end-to-end manner.
With the emergence of more and more powerful chipsets and hardware and the rise of Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), there is a growing trend for bringing DNN models to empower mobile and edge devices with intelligence such that they can support attractive AI applications on the edge in a real-time or near real-time manner. To leverage heterogeneous computational resources (such as CPU, GPU, DSP, etc) to effectively and efficiently support concurrent inference of multiple DNN models on a mobile or edge device, in the last part of this thesis, we propose a novel experience-driven control framework for resource co-scheduling, which we call COSREL. COSREL has the following desirable features: 1) it achieves significant speedup over commonly-used methods by efficiently utilizing all the computational resources on heterogeneous hardware; 2) it leverages DRL to make dynamic and wise online scheduling decisions based on system runtime state; 3) it is capable of making a good tradeoff among inference latency, throughput and energy efficiency; and 4) it makes no changes to given DNN models, thus preserves their accuracies.
To validate and evaluate the proposed frameworks, we conduct extensive experiments on packet-level simulation (for TE), testbed with modified Linux kernel (for MPTCP), and off-the-shelf Android devices (for resource co-scheduling). The results well justify the effectiveness of these frameworks, as well as their superiority over several baseline methods
Supporting policy packages: the future of road pricing in the UK
Transport is already a large component of our economy and society. Historically, transport programmes were substantially about developing basic infrastructure networks. Now the emphasis is on the active management of systems and operating them to maximum advantage in the face of growing travel demand and capacity limitations. Combined developments in technology and the world economy have accelerated change to almost unpredictable levels. The change affects many areas and transport is not an exception. With new vehicle technologies, radical policies and the persistent growth in private and commercial vehicles, a new changing transport landscape is emerging.
One of these changes comes in the form of sustainable transport management - managing the demand of existing infrastructure networks. The role of demand management has been illustrated in many reports and papers and it seems that governments are becoming more aware of it. This paper focuses on one particular demand management policy that is often regarded as radical and generally unacceptable. Road pricing often gets delayed or abandoned due to controversy, disagreements, unanticipated problems and a whole host of other delaying factors. There are complex interactions in transport management - there is a need for cooperation between networks, stakeholders and different authorities.
Single measures that focus on 'sustainable transport' usually address a limited set of objectives and are not usually combined with other policy measures. When combined, it is sometimes unclear whether the multiple interactions between policy tools and implementation networks have been considered. An emerging case of implementation of a policy package in the UK is the support of road pricing initiatives combined with public transport improvements by the Transport Innovation Fund.
The paper will present a review of the UK road pricing situation along with key implementation factors that show firstly the importance of combining policy tools and secondly the necessity in creating and maintaining strong implementation networks

Social Equity Impacts of Congestion Management Strategies
This white paper examines the social equity impacts of various congestion management strategies. The paper includes a comprehensive list of 30 congestion management strategies and a discussion of equity implications related to each strategy. The authors analyze existing literature and incorporate findings from 12 expert interviews from academic, non-governmental organization (NGO), public, and private sector respondents to strengthen results and fill gaps in understanding. The literature review applies the Spatial – Temporal – Economic – Physiological – Social (STEPS) Equity Framework (Shaheen et al., 2017) to identify impacts and classify whether social equity barriers are reduced, exacerbated, or both by a particular congestion mitigation measure. The congestion management strategies discussed are grouped into six main categories, including: 1) pricing, 2) parking and curb policies, 3) operational strategies, 4) infrastructure changes, 5) transportation services and strategies, and 6) conventional taxation. The findings show that the social equity impacts of certain congestion management strategies are not well understood, at present, and further empirical research is needed. Congestion mitigation measures have the potential to affect travel costs, commute times, housing, and accessibility in ways that are distinctly positive or negative for different populations. For these reasons, social equity implications of congestion management strategies should be understood and mitigated for in planning and implementation of these strategies
A genetic algorithm for the design of a fuzzy controller for active queue management
Active queue management (AQM) policies are those
policies of router queue management that allow for the detection of network congestion, the notification of such occurrences to the
hosts on the network borders, and the adoption of a suitable control
policy. This paper proposes the adoption of a fuzzy proportional
integral (FPI) controller as an active queue manager for Internet
routers. The analytical design of the proposed FPI controller is
carried out in analogy with a proportional integral (PI) controller,
which recently has been proposed for AQM. A genetic algorithm is
proposed for tuning of the FPI controller parameters with respect
to optimal disturbance rejection. In the paper the FPI controller
design metodology is described and the results of the comparison
with random early detection (RED), tail drop, and PI controller
are presented
