A Novel Congestion Pricing Function Implementation in IP Networks
Kai Mao · Microelectronics & Computer · 2011
We propose a new congestion-sensitive pricing framework edge to edge capacity contracting(EECC),which is able to provide a range of fairness in rate allocation by using pricing as a tool.We develop a pricing scheme within the EECC framework and investigate several issues such as optimality of prices,fairness of rate allocation and stability.Then,we adapt EECC in current IP networks and evaluate it by extensive simulation.
