[comp.os.research] reference needed: distributed flow control algorithms

liu@cornelius.UCSD.EDU (Hai-Ning Liu) (03/26/91)

I would like to see the reference/paper/report
related to the following problem.
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,
