Computer-designed algorithms for controlling network congestion yield transmission rates two to three times as high as those designed by humans. TCP, the transmission control protocol, is one of the ...
It’s hard to imagine now, but in the mid-1980s, the Internet came close to collapsing due to the number of users congesting its networks. Computers would request packets as quickly as they could, and ...
In December, we wrote about researcher Bob Briscoe's problems with TCP's fairness in handling different protocols. Specifically, unattended peer-to-peer bulk data transfer applications (e.g., ...
Transport Control Protocol (TCP) incast congestion happens when number of senders work in parallel with the same receiver where the high bandwidth and low latency network problem occurs. For many data ...
How to enable TCP BBR to improve network speed on Linux Your email has been sent Jack Wallen shows you how to use Google's much improved TCP Congestion Control Algorithm on Linux for significant ...
Do you remember when we used multi-protocol routing for IPX, AppleTalk, and TCP/IP running on the same network? In the 1980s and early 1990s many enterprises had multiple protocols running on the ...
