Funded Activity Summary

Efficient and Fair Traffic Control for a Multi-Service Internet. Australia relies very heavily on its telecommunications infrastructure due to its geographic dispersion. For the same reason, it cannot afford to invest in inefficient infrastructure. Our novel and practical Internet congestion control scheme will overcome current weaknesses in the Internet, and will enable the Australian telecommunication service industry to provide a better quality of service to the customers (including Australian industries and rural communities) and at lower cost. This project will put Australia on the international stage as a leading contributor to Internet technology. We will provide training for PhD students and postdoctoral fellows in the important area of Internet traffic engineering and control.
