TCP in Presence of Bursty Losses

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview This paper analyzes the performance of a TCP-like flow control in a lossy environment. The transmission rate in the control scheme that the paper considers has a linear growth rate; whenever a loss occurs, the transmission rate is halved. This approximates the performance of several versions of TCP that divide their congestion window by two when a loss is detected. The paper proposes a mathematical model that allows to account for burstiness in the loss process. It computes the expected transmission rate and its moments at some potential loss instants, and provide a useful implicit expression for the Laplace Stieltjis Transform. This allows to compute explicitly the time average of the transmission rate as well as its moments.

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Fat cat telcos are killing the net

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
