Multipath Transport Control Protocol (MPTCP) is a promising solution to support simultaneous transmission of packets through multiple paths. With bounded receive buffer and heterogeneous networks, MPTCP could suffer from degradation of its performances, undermining the advantage from multiple path transmission. In this paper, we propose a simple and effective method to manage the multiple paths of...
Multi-path TCP has recently shown great potential to take advantage of the rich path diversity in data center networks (DCN) to increase transmission throughput. However, the small flows, which take a large fraction of data center traffic, will easily get a timeout when split onto multiple paths. Moreover, the dynamic congestions and node failures in DCN will exacerbate the reorder problem of parallel...
HTTP-based adaptive protocols dominate today's video streaming over the Internet, and operate using multiple quality levels that video players request one segment at a time. Despite their popularity, studies have shown that performance of video streams still suffers from stalls, quality switches and startup delay. In wireless networks, it is well-known that high variability in network bandwidth affects...
Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) promises higher bandwidth and higher resilience against network path failures as an evolving technology for the future Internet. MPTCP allows multiple paths between two devices to be pooled and appear to the application as a single end-to-end transport connection. In this paper, we propose a solution for the packet reordering problem, to improve path...
Multipath TCP is an extension to TCP protocol that allows a single connection to be split across multiple paths. MPTCP overcomes few limitations of TCP thereby offering added benefits like increased throughput and network resource utilization and resilience to possible link failures. Different data paths over the network face different end-to-end path delay. The performance of MPTCP is affected not...
By improvements of ICT (Information and Communications Technologies), a lot of advanced high speed communication standards such as 3G (3rd generation mobile telecommunications), LTE (Long Term Evolution) and High speed WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) have been developed. Recently, most devices destined for consumer use, equip more than one communication interface based on the above high speed communication...
In this paper we evaluate and compare the end-to-end performance of different multipath TCP (MPTCP) congestion controllers when run in conjunction with different TCP packet reordering recovery algorithms. The paper answers the following questions: what is the impact of out-of-order events on the end-to-end throughput when using MPTCP, how do out-of-order recovery algorithms that have been proposed...
The market penetration of access devices with multiple network interfaces has increased dramatically over the last few years. As a consequence, there is a strong interest to use all of the available interfaces concurrently to improve data throughput. Corresponding extensions of established Transport protocols are receiving considerable attention within research and standardization. Currently two approaches...
