Un mod猫le d'approximation de diffusion pour la distribution du temps d'acheminement des paquets dans les r茅seaux de senseurs
Nous proposons un mod猫le qui s'appuie sur l'approximation de diffusion pour l'estimation de la fonction de densit茅 de probabilit茅 du temps d'acheminement des paquets dans un r茅seaux de senseurs sans fils 脿 sauts multiples. Dans sa forme g茅n茅rale, le mod猫le tient compte d'une part de la non homog茅n茅it茅 du milieu de propagation et de la r茅partition des noeuds interm茅diaires dans l'espace et d'autre part, des 茅ventuels changements des caract茅ristiques du r茅seau dans le temps. La retransmission des paquets perdus est 茅galement pris en compte dans le mod猫le
The fluid flow approximation of the TCP vegas and reno congestion control mechanism
TCP congestion control algorithms have been design to improve Internet transmission performance and stability. In recent years the classic Tahoe/Reno/NewReno TCP congestion control, based on losses as congestion indicators, has been improved and many congestion control algorithms have been proposed. In this paper the performance of standard TCP NewReno algorithm is compared to the performance of TCP Vegas, which tries to avoid congestion by reducing the congestion window (CWND) size before packets are lost. The article uses fluid flow approximation to investigate the influence of the two above-mentioned TCP congestion control mechanisms on CWND evolution, packet loss probability, queue length and its variability. Obtained results show that TCP Vegas is a fair algorithm, however it has problems with the use of available bandwidth
On stochastic models of internet traffic
The paper discusses various models of self-similar Internet traffic and techniques for estimating the intensity of Long-Range Dependence (LRD). In the experimental part real data sets collected in IITiS PAN are used together with synthetic LRD flows generated using Fractional Gaussian noise and Markov modulated Poisson processes. We are especially interested in Markov models since they can be incorporated in Markov queueing models, for which powerful analytical and numerical techniques are availabl
Fluid-Flow Approximation in the Analysis of Vast Energy-Aware Networks
The paper addresses two issues: (i) modeling dynamic flows transmitted in vast TCP/IP networks and (ii) modeling the impact of energy-saving algorithms. The approach is based on the fluid-flow approximation, which applies first-order differential equations to analyze the evolution of queues and flows. We demonstrate that the effective implementation of this method overcomes the constraints of storing large data in numerical solutions of transient problems in vast network topologies. The model is implemented and executed directly in a database system. It can analyze transient states in topologies of more than 100,000 nodes, i.e., the size which was not considered until now. We use it to investigate the impact of an energy-saving algorithm on the performance of a vast network. We find that it reduces network congestion and save energy costs but significantly lower network throughput

The use of a non-integer order PI controller with an active queue management mechanism
In this paper the performance of a fractional order PI controller is compared with that of RED, a well-known active queue management (AQM) mechanism. The article uses fluid flow approximation and discrete-event simulation to investigate the influence of the AQM policy on the packet loss probability, the queue length and its variability. The impact of self-similar traffic is also considered
