Nowadays, network connectivity and the Internet have been an
indispensable part of our daily lives via various
services/applications supporting all of the industry areas ranged
from trade and business, administration to entertainment,
transportation, education, and healthcare. Typically, the concepts
and introductions of terms, such as the Internet of Things (IoT),
cloud or edge/fog computing, and content-oriented network services,
have been investigated as emerging topics toward the realization of
the Internet of Everything (IoX) in the future. Toward this end,
developing an efficient congestion control mechanism is regarded as
a key to an efficient and robust network design since the network
availability and stability can directly affect the network
performance, in terms of interoperability and robustness,
especially in the case of an explosive increase in the network
traffic volume. In particular, when a network link becomes
corrupted or overload, congestion may occur due to packet drops. As
a result, the overall network performance, including network
throughput, latency, and response time will be degraded. The book
is not intended to provide a comprehensive description of various
congestion control techniques. Rather, with the assumptions that
the readers have some general knowledge of networking fundamentals,
the main goal of this book is to bring together distinguished
perspectives of congestion control in different network platforms
and technologies, ranged from TCP/IP, MPTCP (Multipath TCP) in
heterogeneous networks, wireless networks to information-centric
networks as future networks, and even supercomputing. The book then
aims to give a new insight into this challenging and important
topic of congestion control to overcome network performance
degradation when congestion occurs from both theory/principles and
practical viewpoints. Hence, we hope that this book provides a
broader picture of the Congestion control concept in the context of
communication networks toward efficient network design.
