Abstract
The authors present the FRED (fair random early detection) algorithm a s a congestion control mechanism for TCP over ATM networks. The FRED a lgorithm enhances the RED gateway algorithm, by using the fact that TC P connections should be allocated buffer space in proportion to their bandwidth-delay products. Through simulation, the effectiveness of the proposed FRED algorithm is shown as compared with the drop-tail and t he original RED algorithms.
