A simple window random access algorithm with advantageous properties

A simple full-feedback-sensing window random access algorithm is proposed and analyzed. The throughput of the algorithm is 0.429; its delay and resistance to feedback channel errors are better than those induced by J.I. Capetanakis's (ibid., vol.IT-25, p.505-15, Sept. 1979) window algorithm. In addition, the simple operations of the algorithm allow for the analytical evaluation of the output-traffic interdeparture distribution.<
