Packet classification is crucial for the Internet to provide more value-added services and guaranteed quality of service. Besides hardware-based solutions, many software-based cla...
Packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) protocol is an implicit reservation MAC protocol. It is initially designed for voice packets in the cellular networks [2], [3] but it is...
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...
TCP Slow Start exponentially increases the congestion window size to detect the proper congestion window for a network path. This often results in significant packet loss, while ...
—During the past decade, the packet classification problem has been widely studied to accelerate network applications such as access control, traffic engineering and intrusion de...
