The enhanced exponentially weighted moving average method: a modified flow enforcement technique for ATM networks
T.F. Ibrahim, C.V. Chakravarthy · 2002
High speed networks need congestion prevention and conventional feedback methods of congestion control will not he useful. Many techniques exist including the famous leaky bucket method and its variants. Most of these are classified under the generic name window-based methods. The exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) method is a powerful one. However it has some drawbacks and the present authors attempt to improve upon this by incorporating the techniques from other schemes. Extensive simulations have been performed using a two state on/off model for the source. The results show that the new method, called the enhanced EWMA (EEWMA) is certainly a better method.>
