— In wireless networks, TCP performs unsatisfactorily since packet reordering and random losses may be falsely interpreted as congestive losses. This causes TCP to trigger fast r...
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...
The well-accepted wisdom is that TCP's exponential backoff mechanism, introduced by Jacobson 20 years ago, is essential for preserving the stability of the Internet. In this ...
Genetic algorithms have been successfully applied to many difficult problems but there have been some disappointing results as well. In these cases the choice of the internal repre...
Abstract: Reliable data transmission over wireless multi-hop networks, called ad hoc networks, has proven to be non-trivial. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), a widely used end-...
