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 ...
In the present paper, ImTCP-bg, a new background TCP data transfer mechanism that uses an inline network measurement technique, is proposed. ImTCP-bg sets the upper limit of the co...
— While earlier studies have pointed out that short-lived TCP flows (mice) may hurt long-lived TCP flows (elephants) in the long term, they provide insufficient insight for devel...

This paper suggests that, to match an ideal Internet gateway which rigorously enforces fair sharing among competing TCP connections, an ideal TCP sender should possess two propert...
Standard slow start does not work well under large bandwidthdelay product (BDP) networks. We find two causes of this problem in existing three popular operating systems, Linux, F...
