Network protocols in layered architectures have historically been obtained on an ad hoc
basis, and many of the recent cross-layer designs are also conducted through piecemeal …

Latency is increasingly becoming a performance bottleneck for Internet Protocol (IP)
networks, but historically, networks have been designed with aims of maximizing throughput …

Multipath TCP, as proposed by the IETF working group mptcp, allows a single data stream to
be split across multiple paths. This has obvious benefits for reliability, and it can also lead to …

CUBIC is a congestion control protocol for TCP (transmission control protocol) and the
current default TCP algorithm in Linux. The protocol modifies the linear window growth …

High-speed networks with large delays present a unique environment where TCP may have
a problem utilizing the full bandwidth. Several congestion control proposals have been …

With recent successes of laboratory, inatmosphere, and space demonstrations of free-space
optical communications, there is no doubt that the technology is ready for operational …

Provides a modern mathematical approach to the design of communication networks for
graduate students, blending control, optimization, and stochastic network theories. A broad …

Congestion control algorithms were implemented for the Internet nearly two decades ago,
but mathematical models of congestion control in such a large-scale network are relatively …

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has been proposed recently as a mechanism for transparently
supporting multiple connections to the application layer. It is under discussion at the IETF …

We describe FAST TCP, a new TCP congestion control algorithm for high-speed long-
latency networks, from design to implementation. We highlight the approach taken by FAST …
