		<description><![CDATA[This paper explores combining ECN bits and loss feedback to achieve a high throughput connection in a high bandwidth, low multiplexed environment. In the scheme, a TCP source reacts differently on receiving an ECN than it does on inferring a packet loss in terms of congestion window update. Coupled with...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In recent years, IP-based Virtual Private Networks (IP-VPNs), which provide a virtual privately owned network over an IP network, have attracted attention. With existing IP-VPNs, however, there is a serious problem that fairness among IPVPN customers is not satisfied. This paper first discuss design objectives of a control mechanism for...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Parallel download protocols that establish multiple TCP connections to distributed replica servers have the potential to reduce file download time and to improve the quality of realtime multimedia downloads. Unfortunately, parallel download protocols are also inherently unfair towards single-flow downloads. This paper presents TCP-ROME, a parallel download protocol that allows...]]></description>

		<link><![CDATA[http://whitepapers.zdnet.com/abstract.aspx?docid=333496]]></link>
		<description><![CDATA[This paper considers end-to-end per-station1 and per-flow fair bandwidth allocations for TCP traffic in 802.11 based multi-radio multi-hop networks. First it shows that TCP ACK packets have to be prioritised using IEEE 802.11e since otherwise congestion losses of ACK packets cause unpredictable performance. Then it proves that prioritising ACK packets...]]></description>

However, the multiple join experiments carried out by different receivers in order to detect the available bandwidth make it hard to achieve fairness.

This is achieved using the notion of proportional fairness. However, so far, proportional fairness has been applied at each base station independently. Such an approach can result in non-Pareto optimal bandwidth...]]></description>
