The Macroscopic Behavior of the TCP Congestion Avoidance Algorithm

by Matthew Mathis, Jeffrey Semke, Jamshid Mahdavi, Teunis Ott , 1997
"... In this paper, we analyze a performance model for the TCP Congestion Avoidance algorithm. The model predicts the bandwidth of a sustained TCP connection subjected to light to moderate packet losses, such as loss caused by network congestion. It assumes that TCP avoids retransmission timeouts and alw ..."

MULTILISP: a language for concurrent symbolic computation

by Robert H. Halstead - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1985
"... Multilisp is a version of the Lisp dialect Scheme extended with constructs for parallel execution. Like Scheme, Multilisp is oriented toward symbolic computation. Unlike some parallel programming languages, Multilisp incorporates constructs for causing side effects and for explicitly introducing par ..."

prototypes including up to eight processors. Concert Multilisp uses novel techniques for task scheduling and garbage collection. The task scheduler helps control excessive resource utilization by means of an unfair scheduling policy; the garbage collector uses a multiprocessor algorithm based

Random Early Detection Gateways for Congestion Avoidance.

by Sally Floyd , Van Jacobson - IEEELACM Transactions on Networking, , 1993
"... Abstract-This paper presents Random Early Detection (RED) gateways for congestion avoidance in packet-switched networks. The gateway detects incipient congestion by computing the average queue size. The gateway could notify connections of congestion either by dropping packets arriving at the gatewa ..."

-layer congestion control protocol such as TCP. The RED gateway has no bias against bursty traffic and avoids the global synchronization of many connections decreasing their window at the same time. Simulations of a TCP/IP network are used to illustrate the performance of RED gateways. lNTRODucTION I N high

Automatic verification of finite-state concurrent systems using temporal logic specifications

by E. M. Clarke, E. A. Emerson, A. P. Sistla - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1986
"... We give an efficient procedure for verifying that a finite-state concurrent system meets a specification expressed in a (propositional, branching-time) temporal logic. Our algorithm has complexity linear in both the size of the specification and the size of the global state graph for the concurrent ..."

Transactional Memory: Architectural Support for Lock-Free Data Structures

by Maurice Herlihy, J. Eliot B. Moss
"... A shared data structure is lock-free if its operations do not require mutual exclusion. If one process is interrupted in the middle of an operation, other processes will not be prevented from operating on that object. In highly concurrent systems, lock-free data structures avoid common problems asso ..."

The dangers of replication and a solution

by Jim Gray, Pat Helland, Patrick O'Neil , Dennis Shasha - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1996 ACM SIGMOD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MANAGEMENT OF DATA , 1996
"... Update anywhere-anytime-anyway transactional replication has unstable behavior as the workload scales up: a ten-fold increase in nodes and traflc gives a thousand fold increase in deadlocks or reconciliations. Master copy replication (primary copyj schemes reduce this problem. A simple analytic mode ..."
Abstract - Cited by 575 (3 self) - Add to MetaCart
model demonstrates these results. A new two-tier replication algorithm is proposed that allows mobile (disconnected) applications to propose tentative update transactions that are later applied to a master copy. Commutative update transactions avoid the instability of other replication schemes.

A Probabilistic Approach to Concurrent Mapping and Localization for Mobile Robots

by Sebastian Thrun, Wolfram Burgard, Dieter Fox, Henry Hexmoor, Maja Mataric - Machine Learning , 1998
"... . This paper addresses the problem of building large-scale geometric maps of indoor environments with mobile robots. It poses the map building problem as a constrained, probabilistic maximum-likelihood estimation problem. It then devises a practical algorithm for generating the most likely map from ..."

Theoretical improvements in algorithmic efficiency for network flow problems

by Jack Edmonds, Richard M. Karp - , 1972
"... This paper presents new algorithms for the maximum flow problem, the Hitchcock transportation problem, and the general minimum-cost flow problem. Upper bounds on ... the numbers of steps in these algorithms are derived, and are shown to compale favorably with upper bounds on the numbers of steps req ..."
Abstract - Cited by 560 (0 self) - Add to MetaCart
required by earlier algorithms. First, the paper states the maximum flow problem, gives the Ford-Fulkerson labeling method for its solution, and points out that an improper choice of flow augmenting paths can lead to severe computational difficulties. Then rules of choice that avoid these difficulties

The Vector Field Histogram -- Fast Obstacle Avoidance For Mobile Robots

This method, named the vector field histogram(VFH), permits the detection of unknown obstacles and avoids collisions while simultaneously steering the mobile robot toward the target. The VFH method uses a ..."

Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms: a comparative case study and the strength pareto approach
