Abstract

Given the fact that the current Internet is getting more difficult in handling those interactive traffics which are rapidly increasing, new techniques are required. In this paper, a new Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithm for interactive communications that uses fuzzy logic is proposed. We analyse the relationship between the end-to-end performance and switch nodes' operation state in packet-switched networks. Based on this analysis, guidelines for performing control actions at gateways are given. A new AQM algorithm, Fuzzy Adaptive Optimized Marking (FAOM), is also introduced. We then compare FAOM with RED (Random Early Detection) by simulation using NS-2 to show that FAOM does improve the end-to-end performance for real-time interactive communications.
