Chapter 2 Network Layer Control System: Consensus-Based Control, Theoretical Results and Performance Issues 2.1 Introduction During last years control theory approaches have been proposed to deal with the con- gestion and rate control problem of communication networks. The aim is to avoid congestion at bottleneck nodes by regulating the rate (i.e. allocated bandwidth) of sources traffic (i.e. users or companies requiring network services). Usually ordinary and premium source traffic-type are considered such that bandwidth is allocated to the first provided a sufficient rate is guaran
