A Transparent Performance Enhancing Proxy Architecture To Enable TCP over Multiple Paths for Single - Homed Hosts
نویسندگان
چکیده
This draft complements the work of MPTCP by defining a TCP Splitter/ Combiner Architecture (SCA) that enables non-MPTCP-capable single-homed hosts to benefit from the multiple paths within Internet by means of performance enhancing proxies (PEPs) placed in the access networks. SCA Proxies (SCAPs) make use of multiple paths in a way which is completely transparent to end-hosts. Since the existence of the SCAPs is shielded from the TCP end-points, they can be deployed in the Internet as well as on the end-systems.

Tcp Performance Using Splitting over the Satellite Link
Satellites represent a well-assessed approach for delivering broadband service. Several satellite systems either currently operating or in various stages of development intend to support applications with increasing data-rates. Of course, to achieve success, these systems must provide Internet services requiring the support of Internet protocols, especially TCP. Unfortunately, TCP suffers from ...
متن کاملPerformance-Cost Trade-Off Strategic Evaluation of Multipath TCP Communications
Today’s mobile terminals have several access network interfaces. New protocols have been proposed during the last few years to enable the concurrent use of multiple access paths for data transmission. In practice, the use of different access technologies is subject to different interconnection costs, and mobile users have preferences on interfaces jointly depending on performance and cost facto...

With ubiquitous computing and network access now a reality, multiple network conduits are become widely available to mobile as well as static hosts: for instance wired connections, 802.11 style LANs, Bluetooth, and cellular phone modems. Selection of the preferred mode of data transfer is a dynamic optimization problem which depends on the type of application, its bandwidth/latency/jitter requi...
متن کاملOn the Proxy Server Based Multipath Connections (PSMC)
Multipath connections provide potential multiple paths between network nodes. The traffic from a source can be spread over multiple paths and transmitted in parallel through the network. Multipath connections offer applications with the ability to improve network security, reliability and performance. In this dissertation, we propose to study proxy server based multipath connections (PSMC). The...
