Analysis and Decentralised Optimal Flow Control of Heterogeneous Computer Communication Network Models.
Masters thesis, Universiti Pertanian Malaysia.
Abstract
General closed queueing networks are used to model the local flow
control in multiclass computer communication networks with single and
multiple transmission links. The problem of analysing multiclass
general closed queueing network models with single server and
multiserver is presented followed by the problem of decentralised
optimal local flow control of multiclass general computer
communication networks with single and multiple transmission links.
The generalised exponential (GE) distributional model with known first
two moments has been used to represent general interarrival and
transmission time distributions as various users have various traffic
characteristics.
A new method of general model reduction using the Norton' s
theorem for general queueing networks in conjunction with the
universal maximum entropy algorithm is proposed for the analysis of large general closed queueing networks. This extension to Norton's
theorem has an advantage over the direct application of the universal
maximum entropy approach whereby the study of a subset of queueing
centres of interest can be done without repeatedly solving the entire
network.
The principle of maximum entropy is used to derive new
approximate solutions for the joint queue length distributions of
multiclass general queueing network models with single server and
multiserver and favourable comparisons with other methods are made.
The decentralised optimal local flow control of the multiclass
computer communication networks with single and multiple transmission
links is shown to be a state dependent window type mechanism that has
been traditionally used in practice.
