A dynamic approach for efficient TCP buffer allocation

Optimal Offline TCP Sender Buffer Management Strategy

“…TCP buffer management strategies have been proposed in many papers, for optimizing different performance metrics [1,2]. As far as we know, TCP sender buffer management has not been addressed from the perspective presented in this section.…”

“…Let's also assume that among these X bytes, X 1 >0 were copied in the buffer at time step i 1 and X 2 >0 were copied in the buffer at time step i 2 . The processing times incurred by the X 1 …”

“…The n+1 cells for which the segment tree is built correspond to the points wp [1], wp [2], …, wp[n] and wp[n+1]=wp[n]+1. The queries will be point queries and the update operations will be of the type "range set".…”

Balancing TCP buffer vs parallel streams in application level throughput optimization

“…The techniques that need modifications to the kernel [4], [22], [24], [25] is usually based on dynamic changes to the buffer size during the transfer based on the congestion window or flow control window parameters. The approach presented in [4] requires changes to the Kernel Stack.…”

“…However there are also different interpretations of bandwidth and delay concepts. Most of the current buffer size tuning work either require changes to the kernel stack [4], [22], [24], [25] or are based on estimations made on bandwidth and delay values in the application level [11], [21], [9], [19] .…”
