Cross-layer QoS and its application in congestion control

TLDR
This system presents an enhanced distributed routing that preserves the performances of the running services, despite the congestion which cannot be eliminated, and is an alternative solution to QoS-aware routing.
Abstract
The paper proposes a preliminary design of cross-layer quality of service applied to congestion control in future Internet. This is an alternative solution to QoS-aware routing, whenever the infrastructure operator cannot add new resources, and/or when re-routing is not possible. Dedicated software, running in each node, collects a list of local parameters such as available transfer rate and one-way delay between all neighbors. Then this real-time status information is distributed to all the in-network management enabled nodes that are allowed to be reached. Due to the statistics regarding individual link traffic, a minimal network coding scheme, triggered by cross-layer quality of service, is temporarily activated. This system presents an enhanced distributed routing that preserves the performances of the running services, despite the congestion which cannot be eliminated.

Method and apparatus for congestion-aware routing in a computer interconnection network

TL;DR: In this paper, an example of a method for a first router to adaptively determine status within a network is presented. But the method for the first router may comprise determining status information regarding the second router located in the network, and transmitting the status information to the third router, which may be indirectly coupled to one another.

Modified dijkstra's algorithm with cross-layer qos

TL;DR: A modified Dijkstra's algorithm that calculates the distance between multiple sources and a single destination is presented, correcting the deficiencies of the classical approach by taking into account the dynamicity of the QoS parameters at the Physical Layer and MAC Sub-layer.

Quality of service in the Future Internet

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address QoS in a future Internet scenario and focus on three emerging concepts: network virtualization, enabling the coexistence of multiple network architectures over a common infrastructure; in-network management, improving scalability of management operations by distributing management logic across all nodes.

Congestion Control Based on Distributed Statistical QoS-Aware Routing Management

TL;DR: A distributed routing management solution is described that takes into consideration statistical Quality of Service (QoS) information about the state of network links to offer dynamic metrics to the routing algorithm based on the current resource utilization.

Network information flow

TL;DR: This work reveals that it is in general not optimal to regard the information to be multicast as a "fluid" which can simply be routed or replicated, and by employing coding at the nodes, which the work refers to as network coding, bandwidth can in general be saved.

An algebraic approach to network coding

TL;DR: For the multicast setup it is proved that there exist coding strategies that provide maximally robust networks and that do not require adaptation of the network interior to the failure pattern in question.

Cross-layer design: a survey and the road ahead

TL;DR: A definition for cross-layer design is suggested, the basic types of cross- layer design with examples drawn from the literature are discussed, and the initial proposals on howcross-layer interactions may be implemented are categorized.

"Not All At Once!" - A Generic Scheme for Estimating the Number of Affected Nodes While Avoiding Feedback Implosion

TL;DR: A generic scheme for estimating the size of a group of nodes affected by the same event in a large- scale network, such as a grid, a sensor network or a wireless broadband access network, while receiving only a small number of feedback messages from this group.
