Abstract:

In modern data centers, because of the deadlineagnostic congestion control in transmission control protocol (TCP), many deadline-sensitive flows can not finish before their deadlines. Therefore, providing a higher deadline meeting ratio becomes a critical challenge in the typical online data intensive (OLDI) applications of data center networks (DCNs). However, a problem named as priority synchronization is found in this paper, which decreases the deadline meeting ratio badly. To solve this problem, we propose a priority probability deceleration (P2D) deadline-aware TCP. By using the novel probabilistic deceleration, P2D prevents the priority synchronization problem. Simulation results show that P2D increases the deadline meeting ratio by 20% compared with D2TCP.
