Abstract: Network traffic is monitored to coordinate control of data flows. Data flows between sender hosts and a receiver host are identified. A first data flow and a second data flow have respective priorities. Delay thresholds are assigned to the first data flow and second data flow based on their respective priorities. One-way delays of data packets of the first and second data flows are monitored relative to the assigned delay thresholds. Responsive to determining that the one-way delay of the first data flow's data packets exceed a first delay threshold, transmissions of the first data flow's data packets are paused for a first amount of time. Responsive to determining that the one-way delay of the second data flow's data packets exceed a second delay threshold, transmissions of the second data flow's packets are paused for a second amount of time that exceeds the first amount of time.

Abstract: Network traffic is monitored to coordinate control of data flows and detect anomalies. For a data flow transmitted between sender and receiver hosts, pre-defined amounts of sent and received network traffic of the data flow is recorded. The data flow is monitored, based on time stamps of data packets in the network traffic, for an anomaly. Responsive to determining that no anomaly is detected, the recorded sent and received network traffic is overwritten with newly sent and newly received network traffic, respectively. Responsive to determining that an anomaly is detected, the data flow is paused, which causes the sender host to store the recorded sent network traffic to a first buffer and causes the receiver host the store the recorded received network traffic to a second buffer.
