| Abstract | |
The evolution of network technologies brought increasing management complexity of networking infrastructure and protocols. Cognitive networking was introduced to deal with such complexity. This work presents a cognitive algorithm for cross-layer performance management which is the core of a decentralized framework for self-configuration of communication protocols. We illustrate the proposed solution for the joint reconfiguration of protocol parameters at different layers. The cognitive joint adaptation of TCP congestion window and MAC layer data rate is carried out as a proof of concept. Simulation results show performance improvement given by the proposed approach under changing network conditions. (AU) | |
