G-TCP to Govern Aggregate Throughput of the Parallel TCP Flows

Overview The growth rate of the Internet bandwidth has exponentially increased over past decades. As the Internet bandwidth grows new data-intensive applications such as climate simulation, earth observing, and high energy physics are emerging. Terabyte and petabyte data are required to transfer over the Internet. Many of these applications use the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for the reliable data transfer. Since the standard TCP, TCP Reno, was developed in 1988, it has been widely adopted and performed remarkably well. However, the standard TCP eventually underutilizes network bandwidth as bandwidth delay product continues to grow. The data intensive applications would demand to use tools such as GridFTP, bbcp, and pSocket which open multiple TCP flows in parallel to achieve higher throughput.
