Abstract
A model is given for performance evaluation of IP computer networks that are dominated by congestion-controlled traffic. The model includes heterogeneous TCP flows, UDP flows, short-lived TCP flows, and TCP flows in a differentiated services network. The performance of large-scale networks is estimated where flows may encounter multiple congested links.
