 Dear Siamack 
It would be necessary to back off your statements on the merits and 
performance of Open Loop with simulations. The goal of MAC protocols 
is also to achieve fairness among iinterfering nodes, not merely 
congestion 
control. 
The first two statements on CA mechanisms is certainly not true at 
all. 
We will show that by two protocols having different degrees of 
sophistication. 
Seems to become an interesting and lively September meeting in San 
Jose. 
Best regards 
Harmen

Subject: [RPRWG] Merits of Open Loop From: Siamack Ayandeh <sayandeh@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 06 Aug 2001 11:01:39 -0400 CC: sayandeh@xxxxxxxxxx Sender: owner-stds-802-17@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Folks, As some people are busy doing simulations and writing proposals for 
the 
San Jose meeting, I am posting this presentation early on the reflector. It describes the merits of open loop congestion controls and may impact some of the simulation scenarios that would be presented. The main conclusions of the document are that: - Congestion avoidance algorithms may lead to static partitioning of 
the 
ring bandwidth between high and low priority traffic - With CA it may not be possible to bound the ring access delay of high priority traffic - Open loop does not suffer from HOL blocking - Open loop has relatively low configuration and operational complexity - Open loop is not prone to tuning issues, or link aggregation, etc... Regards, Siamack
