  1. FAST TCP Design, architecture, algorithms Experimental evaluations Lachlan Andrew(for Steven Low) netlab.CALTECH.edu

  2. Acks & Collaborators • Internet2 • Almes, Shalunov • Abilene GigaPoP’s • GATech, NCSU, PSC, Seattle, Washington • Cisco • Aiken, Doraiswami, McGugan, Smith, Yip • Level(3) • Fernes • LANL • Wu • Caltech • Andrew, Bunn, Choe, Doyle, Hegde, Jin, Li, Low, Newman, Papadoupoulous, Ravot, Singh, Tang, J. Wang, Wei, Wydrowski, Xia • UCLA • Paganini, Z. Wang • StarLight • deFanti, Winkler • CERN • Martin • SLAC • Cottrell • PSC • Mathis

  3. pl(t) • AQM: • DropTail • RED • REM/PI • AVQ xi(t) TCP: • Reno • Vegas TCP/AQM • Congestion control is a distributed asynchronous algorithm to share bandwidth • It has two components • TCP: adapts sending rate (window) to congestion • AQM: adjusts & feeds back congestion information • They form a distributed feedback control system • Equilibrium & stability depends on both TCP and AQM • And on delay, capacity, routing, #connections

  4. Packet & flow level Reno TCP FAST, BIC, H-TCP • Packet level - first • Packet level Implement flow behavior ACK: W  W + 1/W Loss: W  W – 0.5W • Flow level • Equilibrium • Fairness, performance • Dynamics • Stability Understood later • Flow level • Equilibrium • Dynamics Design for equilibrium and stability

  5. Flow level: Reno, HSTCP, STCP, FAST • Similarflow level equilibrium • , b, c determine equilibrium • Commonflow level dynamics! window adjustment control gain flow level goal = • Different gain k and utility Ui • Determine equilibrium and stability • Different congestion measure pi • Loss probability (Reno, HSTCP, STCP) • Queueing delay (Vegas, FAST) • Loss pattern in BIC, HTPC,… Combination in CTCP

  6. <RTT timescale RTT timescale Loss recovery FAST Architecture Loss Control

  7. Window control algorithm • Feedback is Queueing Delay, not Loss Theorem(Infocom04, CDC04, Infocom05, Infocom07) • Full utilization • regardless of bandwidth-delay product • Globally stable • exponential convergence • Fairness • weighted proportional fairness, parameter a • Utility function ai log (wi/RTTi)

  8. Isn’t FAST just like Vegas? • Similarities • Feedback is Queueing Delay, not Loss • Same equilibrium • Differences • New dynamics • Change proportional to error • Responds much faster when flows come/go • Implementation details: Burstiness control rate time

  9. RTT RTT = 400ms double baseRTT FAST Throughput Yusung Kim, KAIST, Korea 10/2004 • All can achieve high throughput except Reno • FAST adds negligible queueing delay • Loss-based control (almost) fills buffer … • adding delay and reducing ability to absorb bursts HSTCP BIC

  11. Delay based control • Need not fill buffers • Less delay, can absorb bursts • Control rates but can ignore loss • Less need to over-engineer links • Continuous feedback • no window-halving • Neither more nor less conservative • “Network equilibrium of heterogeneous congestion control protocols”Tang et al., INFOCOM, 2005 • Depends on buffer sizes vs link speeds • Can have multiple equilibria

  12. Conclusion • Mathematically, FAST fits into the standard TCP/AQM framework • AQM signal is delay • High utilisation with small queues • Insensitive to loss • Stable • No window halving • Control-theoretically stable

  13. Dynamic sharing: 3 flows FAST Linux Reno Steady throughput HSTCP BIC

  14. 30min queue Room for mice ! FAST Linux loss throughput HSTCP HSTCP BIC

  15. Is large queue necessary for high throughput?

  16. DSL upload, 4/28/2005 11:15-11:38am • Min RTT: 18ms (File size: 16.6MB) • DSL upload (6Mbps/512kbps), 5/2005 • Min RTT: 10ms

  17. “Ultrascale” protocol development: FASTTCP FAST TCP • Based on TCP Vegas • Uses end-to-end delay and loss to dynamically adjust the congestion window • Defines an explicit equilibrium Capacity = OC-192 9.5Gbps; 264 ms round trip latency; 1 flow BW use 50% BW use 79% BW use 30% BW use 40% Linux TCP Westwood+BIC TCP FAST (Yang Xia, Caltech)

  18. FAST backs off to make room for Reno Periodic losses every 10mins (Yang Xia, Harvey Newman, Caltech)

  21. FAST Architecture Each component • designed independently • upgraded asynchronously Loss Control

  22. Window control algorithm Theorem(Infocom04, CDC04, Infocom05) • Mapping from w(t) to w(t+1) is contraction • Global exponential convergence • Full utilization after finite time • Utility function: ai log xi (proportional fairness)
