YeAH-TCP: Yet Another Highspeed TCP

Overview Several new TCP congestion control algorithms have been proposed to improve TCP performance over very fast, long-distance networks. High bandwidth delay products require more aggressive window adaptation rules, yet maintaining the ability of controlling router buffer congestion. This paper defines a relatively simple experimental scenario to compare most current high speed TCP proposals under many metrics: efficiency, internal fairness, friendliness to Reno, induced network stress, robustness to random losses. Based on the gained insight, the paper defines Yet Another High-speed TCP, as a heuristic attempt to strike a balance among different opposite requirements.
