	  abstract     = {Unlike the best effort service provided by the internet
today, next-generation wireless networks will support real-time
applications. This paper proposes an adaptive early packet discard
(AEPD) policy to improve the performance of the real time TCP
traffic over ATM networks and avoid the fragmentation problem.
Three main aspects are incorporated in the proposed policy. First,
providing quality-of-service (QoS) guaranteed for real-time
applications by implementing a priority scheduling. Second,
resolving the partially corrupted packets problem by differentiating
the buffered cells of one packet from another. Third, adapting a
threshold dynamically using Fuzzy logic based on the traffic
behavior to maintain a high throughput under a variety of load
conditions. The simulation is run for two priority classes of the input
traffic: real time and non-real time classes. Simulation results show
that the proposed AEPD policy improves throughput and fairness
over that using static threshold under the same traffic conditions.},
