Dear all, SIP overload may block too many calls unnecessarily. "Requirements for Management of Overload in the Session Initiation Protocol. IETF RFC 5390." http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5390.txt Build-in overload mechanism cannot prevent overload effectively. Therefore, IETF SIP Overload Control (soc) Working Group works on IETF RFC "SIP Overload Control" currently. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-soc-overload-control-12 IETF SIP Overload Control discussion archives http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sip-overload/current/threads.html#00874 We have published a survey on SIP overload control algorithms (including IETF RFC "SIP Overload Control"). http://www.researchgate.net/publication/231609451_A_Comparative_Study_of_SIP_Overload_Control_Algorithms http://arxiv.org/abs/1210.1505 http://www.igi-global.com/chapter/comparative-study-sip-overload-control/67496 We have also used control theorectic approaches to model the interactions between an overloaded SIP server and its upstream servers as a feedback control system in two different scenarios - redundant retransmission ratio control and round trip delay control (IEEE Globecom 2010 and ICC 2011).
