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

Emerging wireless systems target to provide multi-Gbps data rates for each user, which can
be achieved by utilizing ultra-wide channels available at mmWave, terahertz, and lightwave …

Many applications require fast data transfer over high speed and long distance networks.
However, standard TCP fails to fully utilize the network capacity due to the limitation in its …

Encouraging the release of network data is central to promoting sound network research
practices, though the publication of this data can leak sensitive information about the …

Standard slow start does not work well under large bandwidth-delay product (BDP)
networks. We find two reasons for this problem in three popular existing operating systems …

The paper presents the problem of performance degradation of transport layer protocols due
to congestion of wireless local area networks. Following the analysis of available solutions …

Mobile data networks such as 3G and LTE exhibit properties that are fundamentally different
from those of fixed networks. These differences result in severe performance bottlenecks in …

In network characterization and network tomography, delay is one of the meaningful
parameters to consider. Inside end-to-end delay, one-way delay provides much more …

Slow Start is a technique to probe for unknown and time-varying available bandwidth of a
network path. A sender increases its congestion window by one for each ACK received …

Applications, deployed over a wide area network (WAN) which may connect across
metropolitan, regional or national boundaries, suffer performance degradation owing to …
