  • Dynamic max-min fair rate regulation apparatuses, methods, and systems
    Patent number: 10158574
    Abstract: A processor-implemented method for regulating the flow rate of data packets in a network, including defining a global constant representing a regularly repeating time period common among flow sources in the network; transmitting current flow rate information from each of the flow sources, and for each flow, to the links traversed by each flow, exactly once during a current period; categorizing each of the flows passing through the links on the network into a category for the current period for each link by comparing the current flow rate information to a previously determined fair-share flow rate for the link; counting, in each link, the flows per category for the current period; determining a current fair-share flow rate for the current period in each link using the results of the categorizing and counting; and providing control instructions to each of the flow sources to regulate the rate of each flow.
