RSS tcpTCP's Protocol Radius: The Distance Where Timers Prevent Communication
White Paper This paper examines how the design of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) implicitly presumes a limited range of path delays and distances between communicating endpoints. It shows that TCP is less suited to larger delays due to the interaction... [20 Dec 2007]
TCP Anomalies: Identification and Analysis
White Paper This paper focuses on passive measurements of TCP traffic, main component of traffic. Since TCP is a closed-loop protocol that infers network conditions and reacts accordingly by means of losses, the possibility of carefully distinguishing the... [27 Dec 2007]
TCP Congestion Window Controlling Algorithms on iSCSI Sequential Read Access
White Paper Congestion Window, one of TCP parameters, has a close relationship with system performance in accessing remote storage with iSCSI. iSCSI is one of the most promising technologies in IP-SAN, which decreases a storage management cost. [09 Jan 2008]
TCP Congestion Window Control on an iSCSI Read Access in a Long-Latency Environment
White Paper However, the performance of iSCSI network is lower than that of network based only on TCP/IP, due to its complex protocol processing in accessing storage with iSCSI. As the broadband networks are widely used, IP-SAN is expected as the next... [09 Jan 2008]
TCP Wrappers Misconceptions
White Paper Both reading through the articles and discussion forums on security, and in discussing security with friends, I have encountered some misconceptions surrounding hosts.deny/hosts.allow and TCP Wrappers. [03 Jul 2008]
TCP Performance
White Paper Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the most widely used transport layer protocol in the Internet. Most popular Internet applications, such as the Web and file transfer, use the reliable services provided by TCP. [03 Jul 2008]
Inline Network Measurement: TCP Built-In Techniques for Inferring End-to-End Bandwidth
White Paper This paper introduces a method for measuring the available bandwidth in a network path between two end hosts using an active TCP connection. Then it applies the proposed algorithm to an active TCP connection and introduced ImTCP, a version of TCP... [09 Jan 2008]
TCP/IP Stack Improvements in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1
White Paper There are significant improvements in TCP/IP functionality in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Windows 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1). The presenters of this webcast also discusses security improvements that have been made in TCP/IP to enable... [13 Oct 2006]
TCP Performance for Future IP-Based Wireless Networks
White Paper In recent years, many extensive studies have been performed that have attempted to improve the performance of TCP for wireless networks. The common assumptions made by TCP for wired networks definitely do not hold for wireless networks. [06 Dec 2007]
TCP/IP Networking in Windows Vista
White Paper This paper examines the various enhancements made to the TCP/IP stack in Windows Vista and how they provide improved reliability and performance over previous Windows platforms. Looking at the issues and limitations of TCP/IP networking on existing... [17 Nov 2006]
TCP With Header Checksum Option for Wireless Links: An Analytical Approach Towards Performance Evaluation
White Paper TCP performs poorly in wireless mobile networks due to large bit error rates. Basically, the TCP sender responds to these losses as if they were due to congestion in the network, and reduces the congestion window unnecessarily. [20 Dec 2007]
TCP-Based Video Streaming Using Receiver-Driven Bandwidth Sharing
White Paper This paper establishes the benefits of the proposed approach over standard TCP through Internet experiments involving a prototype for the Linux operating system. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates scenarios in which a client using the bandwidth... [06 Dec 2007]
TCP Westwood: Congestion Window Control Using Bandwidth Estimation
White Paper This paper studies the performance of TCP Westwood (TCPW), a new TCP protocol with a sender-side modification of the window congestion control scheme. TCP Westwood controls the window using end-to-end rate estimation in a way which is totally... [05 Dec 2007]
TCP Fairness for Uplink and Downlink Flows in WLANs
White Paper This paper proposes a dual queue based scheme in an Access Point (AP) for TCP fairness among uplink flows and downlink flows. First, the paper discusses the unfairness problem of TCP flows due to different responses to data packet drop and TCP ACK... [27 Dec 2007]
TCP Connection Passing
White Paper tcpcp (TCP Connection Passing) is an experimental mechanism that allows cooperating applications to pass ownership of TCP connection endpoints from one Linux host to another one.tcpcp can be used between hosts using different architectures and... [18 May 2007]
