Global synchronization protection for bandwidth sharing TCP flows in high-speed links

Abstract: Abstract-In a congested network link, synchronization effects between bandwidth-sharing TCP flows cause wide queue length oscillations, which may translate into poor link utilization if insufficiently buffered. We introduce global synchronization protection (GSP), a simple extension to the ordinary operation of a tail-drop queue that safely suppresses the flow synchronization. Our minimalistic solution is well suited for scaling with leading-edge link rates: it adds only few extra operations in the fast path a… Show more

“…The RED algorithm is quite effective due to simplicity of its implementation in the network hardware, but it has a number of drawbacks. In particular, for some parameters values there is a steady oscillatory mode in the system, which negatively affects the quality of service (QoS) indicators (see Jenkins (2013); Ren et al (2005); Lautenschlaeger and Francini (2015)). Unfortunately there are no clear selection criteria for RED parameters values, at which the system does not enter in self-oscillating mode.…”

“…In addition, it imposes virtually no restrictions on the researcher. As a result, researchers are constantly creating new modifications of this algorithm (see Floyd and Jacobson (1993);Feng et al (2015); Lautenschlaeger and Francini (2015); Karmeshu et al (2016)).…”

“…As the implementation of the system with a threshold control we investigated the RED (seeFloyd and Jacobson (1993); Feng et al (2015); Lautenschlaeger and Francini (2015); Karmeshu et al (2016)) active traffic management unit for the TCP protocol. During simulation of TCP protocol and RED mechanism the serious problems arised.…”

“…This phenomenon is called global synchronization, and this greatly reduces the communication efficiency, sometimes halting the application services provided over the network [6], [7]. Because of this fact, many studies have been conducted on the efficient method for avoiding congestion at the routers [8].…”
