The poor throughput TCP achieves in ATM networks can be mainly attributed to the timeout
problem. Multiple packet losses make the timeout problem. Multiple packet losses happen in …

A number of recent studies have pointed out that TCP''s performance over ATM networks
tends to suffer, especially under congestion and switch buffer limitations. Switch-level …

A cell-discard method has been developed for use in networks supporting TCP-over-ATM
traffic with an unspecified bit rate. In this" concentrated cell discard"(CCD) method, when an …

The performance of the TCP over ATM networks is investigated. A TCP packet is segmented
into multiple ATM cells at the sending node and reassembled at the receiving node. When …

This paper proposes the use of a" drop from front" scheme for improving TCP performance in
high bandwidth-delay product networks. In particular, for" TCP over ATM" we compare the …

Supporting TCP data traffic over ATM-UBR service class requires special mechanisms to
improve the throughput and fairness while minimizing the delay. Several ATM buffer …

It is known that the performance of TCP over ATM can be significantly degraded if the
bandwidth is occupied by cells belonging to packets that are already corrupted by cell loss …

We investigate packet discarding schemes for TCP over ATM with UBR service. In doing so,
we tested the effective throughput of two existing schemes, Partial Packet Discard (PPD) and …

We examine the use of the ATM VBR service class to transport TCP traffic. For this service
class, a sustainable cell rate (SCR) and a peak cell rate (PCR) are negotiated at connection …

The paper presents a simulation study of TCP performance over congested ATM local area
networks. The authors simulated a variety of schemes for congestion control for ATM LANs …
