Abstract-RSVP has been designed to support resource reservation in the Internet. However, it has two major problems: complexity and scalability. The former results in large message...
TCP's delayed acknowledgment algorithm has been shown to hurt TCP performance. One method of gaining the performance lost by reducing the number of acknowledgments sent is to...
