Abstract
A communication network includes an overload control algorithm that adapts to changing circumstances. In a disclosed example, an acceptance fraction for each of a plurality of message types depends upon the arrival rates of the message types. As at least one of the arrival rates changes, the acceptance fraction is responsively changed to provide an overload control algorithm that adapts to changes in message traffic.
