Laor and Gendel (2002) The Effect of Packet Reordering in a Backbone Link on Application Throughput (IEEE Network)

October 16, 2009 paper

A paper in the early year to investigate the effect of packet reordering to application throughput (esp. TCP). The conclusion is trivial but it gives some numbers: [more]

October 16, 2009 paper

This paper proposed the RN-TCP, for Reorder Notifying. [more]

Bhandarkar and Reddy (2004) TCP-DCR: Making TCP Robust to Non-Congestion Events (IFIP Networking)

October 16, 2009 paper

Initiated by the scenario of end-to-end connection involving wireless link, this paper proposes TCP-DCR, the delayed congestion response. [more]

Leung et al (2007) An Overview of Packet Reordering in TCP: Problems, Solutions, and Challenges (Tran. Parallel & Dist Sys)

October 16, 2009 paper

A survey of different approaches to solve the packet reordering problem related to TCP. [more]

Lee et al (2002) Improving TCP Performance in Multipath Packet Forwarding Networks (JCN)

October 16, 2009 paper

This paper deals with TCP over multipath networks. It suggest to modify TCP to enhance its performance over multipath, namely, increase the dupthresh to where is the number (=3) of dup ACKs to trigger fast retransmission by default. Furthermore, the receiver delay ACK the packets out-of-order by ACK only every... [more]
