Abstract

See full text

A method and system for controlling a flow of a plurality of packets in a computer network is disclosed. The computer network includes a queue. The method and system include determining a queue level for the queue and determining an offered rate of the plurality of packets to the queue. The method and system also include controlling a transmission fraction of the plurality of packets to the queue, based on the queue level, the offered rate and a previous value of the transmission fraction so that the transmission fraction and the queue level are critically damped if the queue level is between at least a first queue level and a second queue level.
