The performance of interference robust TCP (IRTCPJ. which has been aroaosed in Ill to counter the &necessaFy throughput red&on that b&curs when there is packet loss due to interference in mobile networks, is evaluated experimentally and analyzed. Its performance is compared with regular TCP under varying probabilities of occurrence of interference and varying duration of interference bursts. An experimental setup has been developed to generate and inject interference into the network in a controlled environment. A packet level observation of the entire transmission with TCP and then with IRTCP is also presented. Finally our conclusions along with the scope for future work in this area is presented.

Enabling mobility in IP networks is an important issue for making use of the many light-weight devices appearing at the market. The IP mobility support being standardized in the IETF uses tunnelling of IP packets from a Home Agent to a Foreign Agent to make the mobility transparent to the higher layer. There are a number of problems associated with Mobile IP, such as triangular routing, each host needing a home IP address, tunnelling management, etc. In this paper, we propose to use mobility support in the application layer protocol SIP where applicable, in order to support real-time communication in a more efficient way.

A wireless ad hoc multihop network is introduced and protocols for the air interface are described and evaluated. The network nodes are assumed able to route connections according to the current radio connectivity of the network. The decentrally organized network can guarantee the bandwidth contracted to a connection (e.g. ATM connection) in a hidden station environment by means of contention-free data transmission for both, channel and packet switched services, based on real channel connections (RCCs). Channels are established and used for the duration of a so called train of data packets, released when the train ends and reestablished when the next train arrives. Most efficient use of the spectrum capacity is provided by a mechanism for dynamic channel allocation to nodes and services. To guarantee availability of network capacity for the re-establishment of a connection, connection admission control is applied considering the overall interference situation and the current radio connectivity. A performance evaluation of the proposed protocols is presented by means of a simulation study for example scenarios.

We present a loop-free routing protocol for ad hoc mobile networks. The protocol is highly adaptive, efficient and scaleable; and is well-suited in large mobile networks whose rate of topological changes is moderate. A key concept in its design is that protocol reaction to link failures is typically localised to a very small region of the network near the change. This desirable behaviour is achieved through the use of a novel mechanism for route discovery, called Relative Distance Micro-discovery (RDM). The concept behind RDM is that a query flood can be localised by knowing the relative distance (RD) between two terminals. To accomplish this, every time a route search between the two terminals is triggered, an iterative algorithm calculates an estimate of their RD, given an average nodal mobility and information about the elapsed time since they last communicated and their previous RD. Based on the newly calculated RD, the query flood is then localised to a limited region of the network centred at the source node of the route discovery and with maximum propagation radius that equals to the estimated relative distance. This ability to localise query flooding into a limited area of the network serves to minimise routing overhead and overall network congestion. Simulation results illustrate its performance and demonstrate its good behaviour comparing to other protocols proposed by IETF Working Group. We refer to the protocol as the Relative Distance Micro-discovery Ad Hoc Routing (RDMAR) protocol.

人们正在努力用服务质量(QoS) =pabfiti=传输~ time - dah来增强互联网。保留协议(Reservation Protocol)为端到端QoS协商提供了一种信令机制。无线网络和移动主机能够支持多媒体应用、语音和视频的QoS要求已经变得非常重要,而移动设备在从一个地区移动到另一个地区时,对信号源的保留和QoS的维护创造了一套新的要求。除了资源预留之外,还需要静音技术,这有助于更快地切换,从而可以维护QoS。本文提出了一种基于QoS域和路由域概念的分层架构,该架构有助于在wimr网络中保持QoS并提供快速的手动传输,该架构使用改进的RSVP协议,有助于为模式主机提供QoS支持。修改后的RSVP协议已经在一个测试中实现,该测试用于测试我们的方法的可行性和性能。测试表明,修改后的RSVP有助于在切换后对mobde主机进行sa@ing源请求。讨论了使用mobde和静音表更改的静音架构的实现,并正在研究将其合并到该测试中。允许您免费制作本作品或部分作品的数字或硬拷贝供个人或房间使用,前提是不为盈利或商业利益而制作或分发副本,并在fmt页面上提供法定副本/ MS通知和完整引用。要复制他人的文章以重新发布,在发送者上发布或重新分发到其上,需要事先获得明确的许可,并获得98 Dtias TUSA的许可。版权所有am1998 1-58113493 / 7/98/10 - s5.00 b

We investigate speculative prefetching under a model in which prefetching is neither aborted nor preempted by demand fetch but instead gets equal priority in network bandwidth utilisation. We argue that the non-abortive assumption is appropriate for wireless networks where bandwidth is low and latency is high, and the non-preemptive assumption is appropriate for Internet where prioritization is not always possible. This paper assumes the existence of an access model to provide some knowledge about future accesses and investigates analytically the performance of a prefetcher that utilises this knowledge. In mobile computing, because resources are severely constrained, performance prediction is as important as access prediction. For uniform retrieval time, we derive a theoretical limit of improvement in access time due to prefetching. This leads to the formulation of an optimal algorithrn for prefetching one access ahead. For non-uniform retrieval time, two different types of prefetching of multiple documents, namely mainline and branch prefetch, are evaluated against prefetch of single document. In mainline prefetch, the most probable sequence of future accesses is prefetched. In branch prefetch, a set of different alternatives for future accesses is prefetched. Under some conditions, mainline prefetch may give slight improvement in user-perceived access time over single prefetch with nominal extra retrieval cost, where retrieval cost is defined as the expected network time wasted in non-useful prefetch. Branch prefetch performs better than mainline prefetch but incurs more retrieval cost.
