Abstract :
In this letter, we propose a new Adaptive Queue Management scheme based on the virtual queue size and the aggregate flow rate. Our proposal is tailored for the widely deployed TCP Reno and does not require modifications to TCP end users. We prove that our scheme can guarantee local stability for a network with an arbitrary topology and heterogeneous round-trip times for TCP users.
