چکیده
This document specifies the Saratoga transfer protocol. Saratoga was originally developed to transfer remote-sensing imagery efficiently from a low-Earth-orbiting satellite constellation, but is useful for many other scenarios, including ad-hoc peer-to-peer communications, delay-tolerant networking, and grid computing. Saratoga is a simple, lightweight, content dissemination protocol that builds on UDP, and optionally uses UDP-Lite. Saratoga is intended for use when moving files or streaming data between peers which may have permanent, sporadic or intermittent connectivity, and is capable of transferring very large amounts of data reliably under adverse conditions. The Saratoga protocol is designed to cope with highly asymmetric link or path capacity between peers, and can support fully-unidirectional data transfer if required. Saratoga can also cope with very large files for exascale computing. In scenarios with dedicated links, Saratoga focuses on high link utilization to make the most of limited connectivity times, while standard congestion control mechanisms can be implemented for operation over shared links. Loss recovery is implemented via a simple negative-ack ARQ mechanism. The protocol specified in this document is considered to be appropriate for experimental use on private IP networks.

A Sender-based TFRC for Saratoga
Saratoga is a protocol for fast file transfers across dedicated links in private networks, using small amounts of feedback for loss recovery. It is in use to download large amounts of imaging data from remote-sensing satellites, where the link environment is highly asymmetric and uplinks are constrained. However, Saratoga lacks a rate-control mechanism to allow fair share with co-existing flows...
متن کاملSaratoga: scalable, speedy data delivery for sensor networks
A networking transport protocol, named Saratoga, has been developed at the University of Surrey for efficient delivery of imagery from Internet-Protocol-based remote-sensing satellites. Saratoga is now being implemented and evaluated for use for the high-end data-delivery needs of astronomers using large, advanced, radio telescopes. These telescopes are expected to take advantage of Internet te...

This document describes an extension to IS-IS protocol [ISO10589], [RFC1195] to add an optional operational capability, that allows tagging and grouping ofthe nodes in an IS-IS domain. This allows simple management and easy control over route and path selection, based on local configured policies. This document describes the protocol extensions to disseminate pernode administrative tags in IS-I...
متن کاملNetwork Working Group Requirements for Distributed Mobility Management Draft-ietf-dmm-requirements-03
This document defines the requirements for Distributed Mobility Management (DMM) in IPv6 deployments. The traditionally hierarchical structure of cellular networks has led to deployment models which are in practice centralized. Mobility management with logically centralized mobility anchoring in current mobile networks is prone to suboptimal routing and raises scalability issues. Such centraliz...
