Evolutionary Minority Game Model for Congestion Control Scheme

초록

Telecommunication technology advances in the past decade have brought networking to another level in terms of reliability and link speeds. However, existing transmission control protocols do not provide satisfactory performance due to their inefficient congestion control mechanisms. In this paper, we propose a new congestion control scheme to provide Quality of Service provisioning while ensuring bandwidth efficiency. Based on the evolutionary minority game (EMG) model, the proposed algorithm adaptively controls the packet transmission to converge a desirable network equilibrium. For the efficient network management, the proposed EMG approach is dynamic and flexible that can adaptively respond to current network conditions. A simulation shows that our proposed scheme can approximate an optimized solution while ensuring a well-balanced network performance under widely different network environments.
