  Winner of the Communications Society William R. Bennett Prize Paper Award, 1999.
  Simulation scripts.

• [FF99] above is the revised version of [FF98] below, which itself is a revised version of Sections 2, 4 and 7 and Appendix A of [FF97] below.

• Other sections of [FF97] have been broken out into two additional papers. One of those papers, on inferring a flow's arrival rate from the RED packet drop history, is from Section 3 and Appendix B of [FF97]. This paper is available in draft form, as follows:

  [FFT98] Sally Floyd, Kevin Fall, and Kinh Tieu, Estimating Arrival Rates from the RED Packet Drop History (Postscript), April 1998. Simulation scripts.

• The revised version of the second additional paper, on router mechanisms to support end-to-end congestion control, is still in progress. However, simulation scripts are available.
