چکیده

This document is a survey of Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) often employed to improve degraded TCP performance caused by characteristics of specific link environments, for example, in satellite, wireless WAN, and wireless LAN environments. Different types of Performance Enhancing Proxies are described as well as the mechanisms used to improve performance. Emphasis is put on proxies operating with TCP. In addition, motivations for their development and use are described along with some of the consequences of using them, especially in the context of the Internet.

Characterizing SPDY over High Latency Satellite Channels

The increasing complexity of Web contents and the growing diffusion of mobile terminals, which use wireless and satellite links to get access to the Internet, impose the adoption of more specialized protocols. In particular, we focus on SPDY, a novel protocol introduced by Google to optimize the retrieval of complex webpages, to manage large Round Trip Times and high packet losses channels. In ...

Cross-layer enhancement of TCP split-connections over satellites links

Satellites have played an important role in global telecommunications. However, transmission control protocol (TCP) suffers performance degradations over satellite links due to the long propagation delay and high bit-error rate. Among methods proposed to alleviate the impact of satellite link characteristics on TCP performance, split TCP connections separated by performance enhancement proxies ...

An Enhanced Packet Buffering Transmission (EPBT) Architecture Design for Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs)

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is widely used for the transport layer protocol in most Internet and Intranet applications. The link characteristics of a specific link environment such as satellite has been limited and degraded by its link characteristics. To address such limitations Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) have been designed and introduced to improve the operation of internet ...

Improving Facial Landmark Detection via a Super-Resolution Inception Network

Modern convolutional neural networks for facial landmark detection have become increasingly robust against occlusions, lighting conditions and pose variations. With the predictions being close to pixelaccurate in some cases, intuitively, the input resolution should be as high as possible. We verify this intuition by thoroughly analyzing the impact of low image resolution on landmark prediction ...
