Hariom Soni, Pradeep Kumar Mishra . Reducing Packet loss in Active Queue Management. International Journal of Computer Applications. 81, 16 ( November 2013), 25-28. DOI=10.5120/14208-2447
Random Early Detection (RED) is a network congestion control algorithm which detects incipient congestion according to current length of average queue. It detects congestion only after a packet has been dropped. In the recent, high speed networks, it is important to have some mechanisms that keep throughput high and average queue sizes low without packet loss and it would be undesirable to have large queue because it would significantly increase the average delay in the network.
