Title
A result on second order nonlinear operators arising in high-speed networking applications
Abstract
We consider the behaviour of a class of nonlinear difference equations that arise in networks employing congestion control protocols. For a class of such systems we show that trajectories, experiencing the same set of congestion notifications, but starting at different initial conditions, converge exponentially to each other.
