Abstract. This paper presents a stable accurate rapid bandwidth estimate (SARBE) algorithm to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The proposed algorithm estimates the b...
In this paper we study the design issues in improving TCP performance over the ATM UBR service. ATM-UBR switches respond to congestion by dropping cells when their buffers become f...
In this paper, we propose and evaluate TCP-DCR. TCP-DCR makes simple modifications to the TCP congestion control algorithm to make it more robust to non-congestion events. The key ...
TCP flows start with an initial congestion window of at most four segments or approximately 4KB of data. Because most Web transactions are short-lived, the initial congestion wind...
In this paper, we explore the operation of TCP congestion control when the receiver can misbehave, as might occur with a greedy Web client. We first demonstrate that there are sim...
