The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a Transport Layer protocol that has been proposed as an alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for the Internet of Things (IoT). SCTP, with its four-way handshake mechanism, claims to protect the Server from a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack by ensuring the legitimacy of the Client, which has been a known issue pertaining to the ...

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol is a new transport protocol initially developed to transport signaling messages over IP networks. The new features of SCTP make it also a suitable candidate for applications which nowadays use the standard transport protocols TCP and UDP. Many of these applications have strict requirements with respect to end-to-end security. Providing end-to-end securit...

This code contribution paper provides an overview of the enhancements to the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) environment of the INET FRAMEWORK. Besides a highly improved SCTP core protocol, a couple of SCTP extensions – being either already standardized or currently under discussion in the IETF – have been realized. Furthermore, extended test applications and an auto-routing module ...

M ost Internet protocol-based networks employ either the transmission control protocol (TCP) or the user datagram protocol (UDP) for data transfer. However, these two general-purpose protocols provide disjointed services and do not ideally satisfy all application needs. The general-purpose stream control transmission protocol is designed to expand the scope beyond TCP and UDP. SCTP evolved from...

Purpose: This qualitative case study explores whether and to what extent a scientific creativity training improved primary school science teachers’ consciousness of creativity, how these changes in the were transferred into their classroom practices following intervention.
 Design/Methodology/Approach: A Scientific Creativity Training Program (SCTP) was developed by researchers. Data colle...

Since its definition in 2000, the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) has attracted increasing interest. Several research works, often validated through analytical and simulative analysis, have attempted to evaluate the benefits of substituting TCP with SCTP, both for signaling and data transfer. In this work, we present a traffic generation and performance analysis tool to test SCTP on...

This document describes the Simple Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). SCTP is designed to transport PSTN signaling messages over IP networks, but is capable of broader applications. SCTP is a reliable datagram transfer protocol operating on top of an unreliable routed packet network such as IP. It offers the following services to its users: -acknowledged error-free non-duplicated transfer of...

Countless researchers have put efforts to conduct researchs about the performance of the traditional transport control protocols (TCP) and user datagram protocol (UDP). Recently new transport protocol had been designed called Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). In this research, we will focus to study the effect of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) on these two transport protocols SCTP an...

Telematics enhances the operations of a modern car. The Messenger on-the-drive (MOD) is developed as an inter-vehicle multi-networked voice/text communication utility, which enables the seamless wireless or telecommunications among the drivers and passengers in a fleet of cars. Two core features of Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), multi-streaming and multihoming, are applied for imp...
