Abstract

In this paper a new approach has been proposed to eliminate congestion that occurs in Internet, mostly caused by multimedia traffic. The new algorithm, Priority Queue Algorithm for multimedia traffic (PQAM) has been developed and simulated. Analysis has been performed on TEXT, AUDIO and VIDEO data packets. It has been found by simulation that PQAM gives better service in terms of less delay in comparison to Adaptive Virtual Queue Algorithm, Virtual Queue Algorithm, and DECbit Algorithm.
