TCP Prediction for Adaptive Applications
Overview Adaptive applications, such as real-time multimedia streaming applications, are increasingly using TCP as their underlying transport protocol. To adapt the content, an elastic application needs a prediction of the future available bandwidth. Unfortunately, the socket API does not allow an application to get information from the transport layer. Therefore, this paper proposes an approach where a monitor collects packet information from the network interface, creates a time series by sampling the packet information, and uses prediction models to assess the future available bandwidth.
