PROJECT TITLE :

End-to-end coding for TCP

ABSTRACT:

Although widely used, TCP has many limitations in meeting the throughput and latency necessities of applications in wireless networks, high-speed knowledge center networks, and heterogeneous multi-path networks. Instead of relying purely on retransmission upon packet loss, coding has potential to enhance the performance of TCP by making certain better transmission reliability. Coding has been verified to figure well at the link layer but has not been absolutely studied at the transport layer. There are several blessings but also challenges in exploiting coding at the transport layer. In this article, we tend to concentrate on a way to leverage finish-to-finish coding in TCP. We reveal the issues TCP faces and also the opportunities coding can bring to improve TCP performance. We tend to additional analyze the challenges faced when applying the coding techniques to TCP and gift this applications of coding in TCP.
