METHODS FOR IMPROVING DATA TRANSMISSION EFFICIENCY IN COMPUTER NETWORKS

Abstract:

Improving data transmission efficiency is a fundamental challenge in modern computer networks due to the rapid growth of network traffic, heterogeneous devices, and real-time application requirements. This paper investigates contemporary methods for enhancing data transmission efficiency by focusing on optimization techniques at the network, transport, and application layers. Key approaches such as traffic management, adaptive routing, congestion control, and intelligent resource allocation are analyzed. Special attention is given to the role of emerging technologies, including software-defined networking and artificial intelligence–based optimization, in reducing latency, packet loss, and bandwidth waste. The article highlights that a combined application of traditional networking techniques and intelligent control mechanisms significantly improves overall network performance. The findings provide a structured perspective on selecting appropriate methods for efficient data transmission in both wired and wireless network environments.
