“…The benefits of multi-access connectivity such as increased capacity, robustness or load-balancing have lately been realised with the development of new multipath transport and application protocols (e.g., MPTCP [10], Multipath RTP [11], Multipath QUIC [12]). These mechanisms incorporate signalling means to discover and exchange information about new addresses/paths as well as for load balancing (resource pooling) and failover.…”

“…QUIC is implemented on top of UDP and can multiplex the application streams on a single connection. In contrast to Multipath TCP (MPTCP) [4] and Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) [5], [6], QUIC does not require any changes to the operating system. The first existing Internet-scale deployment of QUIC, shows high performance and confirms the design decisions with middlebox interference [3].…”

“…To prevent the middleboxes from interfering, QUIC encrypts both data and all header fields. Furthermore, the encryption ensures that the protocol will not be ossified by deployed middleboxes [6]. QUIC adopts a flexible packet format and leverages the congestion control of modern TCP stack.…”

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an evolution of TCP, capable of using multiple network paths to enhance resilience to network handovers. However, Server-side modification is the key challenge for deployment of MPTCP on a large scale. Therefore, a proxy-based design that uses SOCKSv5 over MPTCP was proposed. Though MPTCP enhances the download experience, it also impacts the browsing experience and Page Loading Time (PLT) due to additional SOCKSv5 protocol signaling overhead. On the other hand, to improve the performance of TCP, Google proposed QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connection), which addresses the network handover resilience. QUIC also faces server modification as a major challenge. In this article, we propose a novel design of SOCKS over QUIC (QSOCKS), which improves browsing experience while enhancing reliability. QSOCKS ensures 0RTT/1RTT connection time, thereby improving the Page Loading Time (PLT) and Video Loading Time (VLT). We evaluated the performance of QSOCKS through live experiments on the top websites of various web properties located in different regions, using Samsung S9 smartphones. Moreover, we evaluated our proposal for file download scenario in both homogeneous and heterogeneous Wi-Fi & cellular environment. The users not only benefit from the inherent advantages of QUIC but are also privileged with a better browsing experience.

“…We describe both new mechanisms using classic approaches, e.g., Bottleneck Bandwidth and Round-trip propagation time (BBR) and Low Latency (LoLa) for TCP, and some novel proposals for using machine learning techniques for congestion control. Finally, the third trend we discuss in this survey is related to the adoption of multipath solutions at the transport layer, mainly with Multipath TCP (MPTCP) [25], [26], but also with multipath extensions for SCTP [27], QUIC [28], [29], and with the Latency-controlled End-to-End Aggregation Protocol (LEAP) [30].…”

Over the years, the Internet has been enriched with new available communication technologies, for both fixed and mobile networks and devices, exhibiting an impressive growth in terms of performance, with steadily increasing available data rates. The Internet research community has kept trying to evolve the transport layer protocols to match the capabilities of modern networks, in order to fully reap the benefits of the new communication technologies. This paper surveys the main novelties related to transport protocols that have been recently proposed, identifying three main research trends: (i) the evolution of congestion control algorithms, to target optimal performance in challenging scenarios, possibly with the application of machine learning techniques; (ii) the proposal of brand new transport protocols, alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and implemented in the user-space; and (iii) the introduction of multipath capabilities at the transport layer.
