Congestion control for the future internet

Abstract

Australia relies very much on its telecommunications infrastructure due to its geographic dispersion. 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 Australia industries and rural communities) and at lower cost. This project will put Australia on the international stage as an leading contributor to Internet technology. We will provide training for PhD students and the management of postdoctoral fellows in the important area of Internet traffic engineering and control.
