Abstract : The boom in new streaming media applications in the recent past calls for innovative strategies that can support both data and media over the same global IP based Internet in a fair and efficient manner. Several solutions have already been proposed to control the rate of media traffic and to maintain fairness among the heterogeneous traffic flows. We propose a mechanism that solves many of the problems associated with the earlier schemes. A new concept, called "loss sharing", is introduced for 'media rate control' and 'maintenance of fairness'. We show that these two objectives are automatically achieved as desirable side-effects of the recently proposed "TTL routing algorithm". This algorithm adopts a new interpretation of the TTL (time-to-live) field of the IP header. It is shown that rate control by "TTL routing" has certain other desirable features.
