TCP Model for Short Lived Flows
Overview ACCORDING to studies, TCP, accounts for 95% of the total traffic volume, and 80% of the total number of flows in the Internet. Among the TCP flows, a large majority are short lived flows with the average and the median lengths no larger than 10 KB. These figures highlight the importance of understanding the behavior of short lived TCP flows. This paper proposes a recursive, analytical model to predict the TCP performance in terms of completion time for short-lived flows. Based on the knowledge of the average dropping probability, the average roundtrip time and the flow length, the model provides very good results when compared to simulation.
