Abstract :
This papers analyzses a class of nonlinear positive systems that model the dynamics of nonlinear additive-increase multiplicative-decrease (AIMD) protocols. The system class covers a range of protocols that are currently used in real communication networks, such as standard TCP, and recent proposals for congestion control protocols such as Scalable TCP
