I will post the summary if there is enough interest. Decentralized Flow Control in Computer Communication Networks: In a computer communication network, several clients in different hosts want set up communication channels with each others INSTANTLY. What kind of flow control policy should one use, since each links have limited capacities? I am most interested in distributed or decentralized algorithms. Thanks,
