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.

Bro: a system for detecting network intruders in real-time
TL;DR: Bro as mentioned in this paper is a stand-alone system for detecting network intruders in real-time by passively monitoring a network link over which the intruder's traffic transits, which emphasizes high-speed (FDDI-rate) monitoring, realtime notification, clear separation between mechanism and policy and extensibility.
Stream Control Transmission Protocol
R. Stewart,Qiaobing Xie,K. Morneault,C. Sharp,H. Schwarzbauer,T. Taylor,I. Rytina,Malleswar Kalla,Lixia Zhang,Vern Paxson +9 more
TL;DR: This document describes the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), which is designed to transport PSTN signaling messages over IP networks, but is capable of broader applications.
TCP Congestion Control
TL;DR: This document defines TCP's four intertwined congestion control algorithms: slow start, congestion avoidance, fast retransmit, and fast recovery, as well as discussing various acknowledgment generation methods.

TL;DR: An overview of the Bro system's design, which emphasizes high-speed (FDDI-rate) monitoring, real-time notification, clear separation between mechanism and policy, and extensibility, is given.
