Abstract In this paper, an algorithm based on the packet drop history in RED is presented, aimed at solving the problem that the bandwidth is not balancedly allocated to responsive and unresponsive flows in today s Internet. This algorithm is able to detect high sending-rate flows and to drop the arriving packets from them with a calculated probability, hence to prevent the bandwidth from being occupied excessively by these flows. The effect of this algorithm has been proven in different scenarios by simulations.
