Abstract:Traditional TCP flow control schemes, such as Tahoe and Reno, continuously increase the window size until possible packet loss is detected. These schemes generate congestion unnecessarily by themselves and utilize the buffer space inefficiently. Therefore, Vegas was proposed to accommodate the drawbacks. It uses the measured round-trip time (RTT) to obtain the information required for the flow control. In this work, we propose a flow control scheme, RTT-based TCP, which uses the RTT directly to control the win… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
