TCP Westwood+ Enhancement in High-Speed Long-Distance Networks

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview In this paper, mechanisms to enhance the performance of TCP Westwood+ in the presence of a large Bandwidth-Delay Product are studied. In particular, the employment of a logarithmic function for congestion window increase in the absence of packet losses is proposed. Extensive numerical simulations, carried out by using ns-2, show that the use of such logarithmic function can lead to relevant performance improvements with respect to standard Westwood+ protocol.

VoIP primer: How it works - and what the jargon means

Any 'latency' - the delay in delivering the voice stream from the speaker to the listener - degrades the quality of the sound as does 'jitter' and 'packet loss'. The problems of packet loss, delay and jitter are exacerbated when voice traffic...

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.
