Journal ArticleDOI
Random early detection gateways for congestion avoidance
Sally Floyd,Van Jacobson +1 more
TL;DR: Red gateways are designed to accompany a transport-layer congestion control protocol such as TCP and have no bias against bursty traffic and avoids the global synchronization of many connections decreasing their window at the same time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wide area traffic: the failure of Poisson modeling
Vern Paxson,Sally Floyd +1 more
TL;DR: It is found that user-initiated TCP session arrivals, such as remote-login and file-transfer, are well-modeled as Poisson processes with fixed hourly rates, but that other connection arrivals deviate considerably from Poisson.
Journal ArticleDOI
Promoting the use of end-to-end congestion control in the Internet
Sally Floyd,Kevin Fall +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that router mechanisms are needed to identify and restrict the bandwidth of selected high-bandwidth best-effort flows in times of congestion, and several general approaches are discussed for identifying those flows suitable for bandwidth regulation.
TCP Selective Acknowledgement Options
TL;DR: TCP may experience poor performance when multiple packets are lost from one window of data because of the limited information available from cumulative acknowledgments.
The NewReno Modification to TCP's Fast Recovery Algorithm
TL;DR: The purpose of this document is to advance NewReno TCP's Fast Retransmit and Fast Recovery algorithms in RFC 2582 from Experimental to Standards Track status.
