Modelling and control for web real-time communication

Congestion control for real-time media communication over the Internet is currently being addressed in IETF and W3C bodies aiming at standardizing a set of inter-operable protocols and APIs to enable real-time communication between Web browsers. In this paper we propose a mathematical model of the congestion control algorithm for real-time flows proposed by Google. Based on this model, we design a control algorithm that provides fair coexistence of real-time flows with TCP flows.
