Analysis and comparison of optimization algorithm for network flow control
Hao Zhang, Zhong‐Ping Jiang, Yi Fan, Shivendra S. Panwar · 2003
A modified Aitken extrapolation method is proposed for network flow control. Based on the dual model, this algorithm leads to a decentralized optimal solution to the problem of maximizing the aggregate source utility over the transmission rates. The contribution of the paper is to compare the proposed Aitken extrapolation algorithm with some available optimization flow control algorithms in the recent literature and to analyze their rate of convergence. Simulation results demonstrate the consistency with our theoretical analysis.
