All Internet routers contain buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. Today, the size of the buffers is determined by the dynamics of TCP’s congestion control algor...
This paper presents a simulation study of various TCP acknowledgment generation and utilization techniques. We investigate the standard version of TCP and the two standard acknowl...
— End-to-end congestion control mechanisms such as those in TCP are not enough to prevent congestion collapse in the Internet (for starters, not all applications might be willing...
— IP-based solutions to accommodate mobile hosts within existing internetworks do not address the distinctive features of wireless mobile computing. IP-based transport protocols ...
—Interactivity in the transport protocol can greatly benefit transport friendly applications generating streaming traffic. Recently we have developed iTCP, which can provide even...
