Modelling the Complex Internet Topology
Internet is one of the most impressive creatures of our civilization; it has literally changed the ways we do business, communication, education,...
-
Nonlinear Dynamics of TCP and its Implications to Network Performance
TCP flows continuously intertwine in the Internet competing with each other for service capacity and buffer space in bottleneck routers. The window...
