In this paper we study the design issues in improving TCP performance over the ATM UBR service. ATM-UBR switches respond to congestion by dropping cells when their buffers become f...
— To discover an efficient fair sending rate for a flow, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) saturates the bottleneck link and its buffer until the router discards a packet. Su...
The majority of the traffic (bytes) flowing over the Internet today have been attributed to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). This strong presence of TCP has recently spu...
— This paper examines congestion control issues for TCP flows that require in-network processing on the fly in network elements such as gateways, proxies, firewalls and even r...
The congestion control mechanisms of TCP make it vulnerable in an environment where flows with different congestionsensitivity compete for scarce resources. With the increasing am...
