The heterogeneity of the Internet’s transmission resources and end system capability makes it difficult to agree on acceptable traffic characteristics among the multiple receive...
Multicast sessions may have a large number of receivers with heterogeneous reception capacities. To accommodate this heterogeneity, various multi-rate schemes, based upon the use ...
TCP suffers from low performance over asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks. This is mainly because during phases of congestion, ATM drops cells without taking into account th...
Abstract—The innovative techniques of TCP Vegas have been the subject of much debate in recent years. Several studies have reported that TCP Vegas provides better performance tha...
Many mathematical models exist for describing the behavior of TCP/IP (TCP: transmission control protocol) under an exogenous loss process that does not depend on the window size. ...
