PNI = f0, 1g : f1 ) No rule 5b, 0 ) Rule 5b <strong>for</strong> August 1995 and Basel<strong>in</strong>e UILIg<br />

Figure 7.5: Five Sources Con guration<br />

The simulation is run <strong>for</strong> 400 ms. For <strong>the</strong> rst half of <strong>the</strong> simulation (200 ms), all<br />

<strong>the</strong> VCs are source-bottlenecked at 10 Mbps. After t=200 ms, all sources are able to<br />

use <strong>the</strong>ir allocated rates.<br />

Figure 7.6 shows <strong>the</strong> ACR, and <strong>the</strong> actual source rates <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> ve UILI alternatives<br />

studied. There are six l<strong>in</strong>es <strong>in</strong> each graph consist<strong>in</strong>g of ve ACR values and one actual<br />

source rate. S<strong>in</strong>ce all ve sources are identical, <strong>the</strong> curves lie on <strong>the</strong> top of each o<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

With no UILI implemented ( gure 7.6(a)) <strong>the</strong> ACR is <strong>in</strong>itially much larger than<br />

<strong>the</strong> actual source rate. At 200 ms, <strong>the</strong> source rate jumps to <strong>the</strong> ACR and results<br />

<strong>in</strong> network overload. Figure 7.6(b) shows oscillatory behavior of <strong>the</strong> August 1995<br />

proposal due to <strong>the</strong> wrong oor of <strong>the</strong> ACR reduction function. The Basel<strong>in</strong>e UILI<br />

reaches <strong>the</strong> goal. However it oscillates between <strong>the</strong> goal and <strong>the</strong> network feedback.<br />

The count-based UILI converges quickly to <strong>the</strong> goal and does not have oscillations<br />
