This paper presents an reduced-order near-optimal controller for the congestion control of Available Bit Rate (ABR) service in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks. We introduce the model, of a class of ABR traffic, that can be controlled using a Explicit Rate feedback for congestion control in ATM networks. Since there are great computational complexities in the class of optimal control problem for the ABR model, the near-optimal controller via reduced-order technique is applied to this model. It is implemented by the help of weakly coupling and singular perturbation theory, and we use bilinear transformation because of its computational convenience. Since the bilinear transformation can convert discrete Riccati equation into continuous Riccati equation, the design problems of optimal congestion control can be reduced. Using weakly coupling and singular perturbation theory, the computation time of Riccati equations can be saved, moreover the real-time congestion control for ATM networks can be possible.

The ABR service class provides feedback based traffic control to transport bursty data traffic efficiently. Feedback based congestion control has first been studied to be applied to unicast connections. Recently. several congestion control algorithms for multicast connections have also been proposed as the number of ABR applications requiring multicast increases. With feedback based congestion control, the effectiveness of a traffic control scheme diminishes as propagation delay increases. Especially for a multicast connection, a remote destination may suffer unfair service compared to a local destination due to the delayed feedback. Amelioration of the disadvantages caused by feedback delay is therefore more important for remote destinations in multicast connections. This paper proposes a new switch behavior to provide effective feedback based mathc control for rentoh destinations. The proposed switches adjust the service rate dynamically in accordance woth the state of the downstream, that is, the congestion of the destinaion is immediately controlled by the nearest apstream switch before the source to ramp down the transmission rate of the connection. The proposed switch has an implementation overhead to have a separate buffer for each VC to adjust the service rate in accordance with a backward Rm cell of each VC. The buffer requirement id also increased at intermediate switches. Simulation results show that the proposed switch reduces the cell loss rate in both the local and the remote destinations and slso amelioratd the between the two destinations.

These days, streaming users are using ABR (Adaptive Bitrate) technique services by requesting the most adequate video rate selectively based on their own channel states. Most ABR related video rate adaptation techniques are only focused on real-time bitrate adaptations based on their own channel state, and misses energy limited characteristics that come from a mobile device's battery dependence. In other words, the mobile device's important characteristics and accompanying energy consumption are not being considered and causes dissatisfaction over streaming services. In this paper, we propose energy efficient prefetching based dynamic adaptive video streaming techniques, which saves unnecessary consumed energy while providing video rates of the same performance. Our scheme continuously turns off energy modules with enough streaming in the buffer and turns on in case of the opposite situation to save energy. Through the performance evaluation, this study's proposed scheme is 60% better than the previous work at global average mobile download speed.

본 논문에서는 멀티캐스트 ABR흐름제어를 위해 현재 ATM포럼을 통해 제안되고 있는 신속한 폭주 통지 기능을 기존 통합 알고리즘들에 적용하여 이들의 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 비교 분석하였다. 성능 분석의 지표로 송신원의 ACR(Allowed Cell Rate), 스위치에서의 큐 길이, 링크 이용효율, 공평성 등을 사용하였다 분석결과, 신속한 폭주 통지 기능을 사용한 통합 알고리즘들은 망에 심각한 폭주가 발생한 경우 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 이러한 기능을 사용하는 알고리즘들의 성능은 기본적인 통합 알고리즘들의 성능에 매우 민감함을 알 수 있었다.

ABR 서비스에서 전송률 제어 방식은 크게 크래딧 방식과 전송률 기반 방식으로 구분되는데, 전송률 기반 방식의 대표적인 스위치 알고리즘인 EPRCA(Enhanced Properties RATE Control Algorithm)를 비롯하여 지금까지 제안된 전송률 기반 폭주제어방법은 대부분 스위치의 평균 큐 길이 Q 에 의한 폭주제어 방식을 사용한다. [2, 6, 8]. 폭주판단방법은 큐 임계치 방식, 부하 임계치 방식, 큐 증가 임계치 방식으로 나눌 수있다. 큐 임게치 만을 사용하는 방법이 가장 일반적이지만, 큐 길이와 큐 임계치의 비교에 따른 지연이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 큐 길이의 증감 상태를 큐 임계치와 동시에 사용하여 폭주제어를 신속히 할 수 있는 스위치 알고리즘을 제안한다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient ABR multicast algorithm for ATM networks. In ABR multicast algorithim, the feedback consolidation is necessary to avoid excessive backward resource management (BRM) cells and to aggregate the information from BRM cells received from each branch. The proposed scheme is shown to achieve fast transient response to the congestion status on a branch as well as effectively eliminate the consolidation noise through system simulation.

In this paper we propose an explicit rate allocation algorithm for ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) Networks using the available bit rate(ABR) class of service and study the performance of this algorithm. We examine the behavior of ABR traffic with the suggested algorithm, and demonstrate that the algorithm is fair and maintains network efficiency with low cell loss rate. The simulation results show substantial improvements in fairness and efficiency over the existing algorithms.

With recent development of high-speed wide-area wireless networks and wide spread of highperformance wireless devices, the demand on seamless video streaming services in Long Term Evolution (LTE) network environments is ever increasing. To meet the demand and provide enhanced Quality of Experience (QoE) with mobile users, the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) has been actively studied to achieve QoE enhanced video streaming service in dynamic network environments. However, the existing DASH algorithm to select the quality of requesting video segments is based on a procedural algorithm so that it reveals a limitation to adapt its performance to dynamic network situations. To overcome this limitation this paper proposes a novel quality selection mechanism based on a Deep Q-Network (DQN) model, the DQN-based DASH ABR($DQN_{ABR}$) mechanism. The $DQN_{ABR}$ mechanism replaces the existing DASH ABR algorithm with an intelligent deep learning model which optimizes service quality to mobile users through reinforcement learning. Compared to the existing approaches, the experimental analysis shows that the proposed solution outperforms in terms of adapting to dynamic wireless network situations and improving QoE experience of end users.

This paper compares the performance of feedback consolidation algorithms with or without a fast overload indication function which has been recently proposed in the ATM Forum for multicast ABR (Available Bit Rate) services in ATM networks. We use the performance criteria such as the ACR (Allowed Cell Rate) of a source, queue length at a switch, link utilization, fairness, and BRM (Backward Resource Management) cell overhead. Simulation results show that performance of the feedback consolidation algorithms with a fast overload indication function can be improved sign.ificantly than that of algorithms without this function in terms of ramp-down delay, particularly in initial start-up period or under a severe overload situation. The fast overload indication function can be combined with any feedback consolidation algorithm, whereas its performance is highly dependent on an underlying basic feedback consolidation algorithm.

A new ER feedback switch control algorithm, called EMRCA(Explicit Max-min Rate Control Algorithm), to control the ABR services traffic in the ATM networks, is proposed in this thesis. This scheme was interpreted the ACR variation residing on between a transient state and a stable state using the two thresholds that is the $TH_{high}$ and $TH_{low}$ in the queue to detect switch nodes congestion, and decreased the difference of minimum and maximum ACR all active connection to enhance the line bandwidth utilization. The proiposed scheme used a minimum and maximum rate of all active connections to select the connection whose the congestion rate inveoked, and uses a congestion detection mechanixm to prevent some potential cogestion by regulating selected contection.s The EMRCA scheme showed ACR variation more stable that the EPRCA scheme, also reduced buffer size of the switch, and achieved higher link utilization than the EPRCA scheme.
