Soft bounded policy for congestion control of communication network

The authors propose a soft bounded policy for congestion control of a communication network. The resultant blocking by this policy is examined. The key point is that congestion is usually not a static resource allocation problem. The chief cause of congestion is the dynamic property of traffic. Dynamic traffic needs a dynamic scheme. The soft bounded policy aims to fulfill the dynamic control of the system with a simple mechanism. The Simon's (1962) proposition and A. Kuczura's (1973) model are used to guide the control and analysis of the network. This policy and the evaluation model have removed the obstacles in previous work. The advantages of the policy are discussed.<
