This research aimed to propose a benchmarking decision matrix for the Active Queue Management (AQM) methods of network congestion control based on multi-criteria analysis to aid the developers of AQM methods to make the right decision of selecting the best AQM method. In this study, an experiment was conducted on the basis of several stages. First, decision matrix was proposed for selecting suitable AQM methods based on multi criteria (performance, process overhead and configuration), with each criterion has several sub criteria (Throughput, Mean Queue Length, Drop Rate, Packet Loss, Delay, Time, Space, Estimated Calculation, Sensitivity). In addition, six AQM methods of alternatives were used. Subsequently, the ranking of the AQM methods was utilized by the developed decision matrix using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques, namely, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to weight the evaluation criteria, and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solu.....
