We re-examine the two reasons for the conservative 1-second Minimum TCP-RTO to protect against spurious timeouts: i) the OS clock granularity and ii) the Delayed ACKs. We find tha...
In this paper, we consider a distributed mechanism to detect and to defend against the low-rate TCP attack. The low-rate TCP attack is a recently discovered attack. In essence, it ...
The more information about current network conditions available to a transport protocol, the more efficiently it can use the network to transfer its data. In networks such as the...
In this paper we describe a new tool being made available to the networking research community for passive analysis of TCP segment traces. The purpose of the tool is to provide mo...
