— While the 802.11 power saving mode (PSM) and its enhancements can reduce power consumption by putting the wireless network interface (WNI) into sleep as much as possible, they ...
Abstract. We propose the Loss Event Rate Discounting scheme to improve the performance of MULTFRC over wireless networks. In our MULTFRC-LERD scheme, each TFRC connection includes ...
—In this paper, we present an extended Mobile Backbone Network (MBN) topology synthesis algorithm (ETSA) for constructing and maintaining a dynamic backbone structure in mobile w...
TCP flows start with an initial congestion window of at most four segments or approximately 4KB of data. Because most Web transactions are short-lived, the initial congestion wind...
The congestion control mechanisms of TCP make it vulnerable in an environment where flows with different congestionsensitivity compete for scarce resources. With the increasing am...
