ABSTRACT:
A scheme for controlling a congestion in the communication network, capable of realizing a recovery from the congestion state by the operation at the lower layer level for the communication data transfer alone, without relying on the upper layer protocol to be defined at the terminals. In a communication network including first and second node systems, a flow of communication data transmitted from the first node system to the second node system is monitored and regulated by using a monitoring parameter. On the other hand, an occurrence of congestion in the second node system is detected according to communication data transmitted from the second node system, and the monitoring parameter used in monitoring and regulating the flow of communication data is changed according to a detection of the occurrence of congestion in the second node system.
