: Multicasting has an increasing importance for network applications such as groupware or videoconferencing. Several multicast routing protocols have been defined. However they can...
Two of the most difficult problems faced by developers of synchronous groupware applications are the handling of multiple session connections and the maintenance of replicated dat...
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...
: This paper briefly summarizes the work towards the final version of ‘Distributed Transaction Processing’ (OSI TP). Several well-known optimizations of the presumed abort prot...

Bandwidth-sensitive multicast delivery controlled by routing criteria pertinent to the actual traffic flow is very costly in terms of router state and control overhead and it scal...
When a wireless link forms a part of a network, the rate of packet loss due to link noise may be considerably higher than observed in a modern terrestrial network. This paper stud...
This paper reports our experimentation results with TCP Selective Acknowledgments TCP-Sack, which became an Internet Proposed Standard protocol recently. To understand the perfo...
The single class best effort service available in the current Internet does not provide the guarantees, typically expressed in terms of minimum bandwidth and/or maximum delay or l...
