Introduction Delivering reliable per-flow Quality of Service in a broadband access network entails a comprehensive congestion control solution at the edge router. The edge router has no direct control over the downstream traffic sources and its egress channel (access link) usually has a smaller bandwidth than its ingress channel. Therefore, to minimize QoS-damaging congestions while maximizing the access link utilization, we leverage on
