The transmission performance of a multi-path transmission control protocol (MPTCP) is affected by many parameters, such as path management, congestion control, buffer size, and subflow bandwidth. Most of the previous studies have focused almost exclusively on the improvement of a single parameter, without a holistic view. In this paper, a multi-parameter comprehensive optimized algorithm (MPCOA) is proposed to comprehensively optimize the above parameters. The MPCOA algorithm can find a smaller buffer size and select an appropriate congestion control and path management algorithm on the premise of ensuring better throughput. Experiments in three scenarios show that MPCOA can save buffer space and subflow resources, and achieve a high throughput. Meanwhile, a set of quantitative improvement results given by MPCOA is convenient for us to evaluate the quality of the MPTCP network and provide reference for our ongoing future work.

The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a representative messaging protocol for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It is noted that a lot of IoT-based streaming applications have been recently deployed. Typically, CoAP uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as its underlying protocol for lightweight messaging. However, it cannot provide reliability, since it is based on UDP. Thus, the CoAP over Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) was recently proposed so as to provide reliability. However, the existing schemes do not provide the error handling and flow controls suitably for IoT-based streaming applications. This tends to induce throughput degradation in wireless lossy networks. In this paper, we propose a CoAP-based streaming control (CoAP-SC) scheme, which is an extension of CoAP over UDP with error handling and flow control for throughput enhancement. The proposed CoAP-SC scheme is designed by considering the sequence number of data message, the use of ACK messages, and the buffer size of sending buffer. To do this, a new CoAP option is defined. For performance analysis, the proposed scheme is implemented and compared with the existing schemes. From the testbed experimentations in various network environments, we see that the proposed CoAP-SC scheme can provide better throughput than the existing CoAP-based schemes by performing the error handling and flow control operations effectively.

Congestion is an un-avoiding issue of networking, and many attempts and mechanisms have been devised to avoid and control congestion in diverse ways. Random Early Discard (RED) is one of such type of algorithm that applies the techniques of Active Queue Management (AQM) to prevent and control congestion and to provide a range of Internet performance facilities. In this chapter, performance of RED algorithm has been measured from different point of views. RED works with Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), and since TCP has several variants, the authors investigated which versions of TCP behave well with RED in terms of few network parameters. Also, performance of RED has been compared with its counterpart Drop Tail algorithm. These statistics are immensely necessary to select the best protocol for Internet performance optimization.

The issue of adaptive practical finite-time (FT) congestion control for the transmission control protocol/active queue management (TCP/AQM) network with unknown hysteresis and external disturbance is considered in this paper. A finite-time congestion controller is designed by the backstepping technique and the adaptive neural control method. This controller guarantees that the queue length tracks the desired queue in finite-time, and it is semiglobally practical finite-time stable (SGPFS) for all the signals of the closed-loop system. At last, the simulation results show that the control strategy is effective.

Datacenter is the important infrastructure to provide resource and service in Internet. Due to the widely observed congestion, all kinds of transmission control mechanisms have been proposed to satisfy diverse network performance demands. Based on InfiniBand (IB) which is widely applied for datacenter construction, this paper proposed a generic testing and evaluation platform IBperf to verify transmission control protocols. We designed a central controller to instruct distributed clients to generate different communication patterns and execute commands of the protocol. The transmission performance can be derived based on the captured packets and digest. In the experiment, IB congestion control (CC) was evaluated through IBperf on our real IB platform. IBperf showed the improvement of fairness and throughput with low overhead based on CC mechanism. It proved IBperf to be an effective tool for the evaluation of IB datacenter.

Asap rokok adalah salah satu asap beracun yang berbahaya bagi kesehatan manusia dari sisi biologis maupun sisi kimiawi. Pada penelitian ini, penulis mengimplementasikansebuah sistem deteksi asap rokok berbasis The Internet of Things menggunakan sensor MQ135, Arduino board dan NodeMCU. Kemudian, penulis melakukan perbandingan Quality of Service dari dua protokol komunikasi data, yaitu Transmission Control Protocol dan User Datagram Protocol pada sistem tersebut. Parameter Quality of Service yang dibandingkan saat proses pengiriman data adalah delay dan data loss. Untuk setiap protokol, simulasi dilakukan selama 1 jam dengan pengiriman data setiap 5 detik, 10 detik, sampai 1 menit. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah data loss dengan Transmission Control Protocol lebih rendah dari pada data loss dengan User Datagram Protocol, sedangkan delay dengan User Datagram Protocol lebih rendah dari pada delay dengan Transmission Control Protocol.

Today, mobile devices like smartphones are supported with various wireless radio interfaces including cellular (3G/4G/LTE) and Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) [42]. The legacy devices can only communicate with only one interface. The Transmission Control Protocol, or TCP, has a limitation inability to change connection settings without breaking the connection. In this paper, we explain how multi-path TCP (MPTCP) protocol has been proposed to solve TCP single-interface limitation and provides a huge improvement on application performance by using multiple paths transparently (auto path changing). We discuss the last mile, which is the final networking segment that carried all network traffic. Indeed, the available bandwidth in last-mile link can effectively harm the network throughput as it limits the amount of transmitted data. We found that the quality of the last mile networks significantly determines the reliability and quality of the carrying network. We believe MPTCP can provide a convenient solution for the last mile problem. We provide a holistic view of the challenges and potential enablers in details.<br>

Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) is an extension of TCP meant for multihomed devices, which uses all the available interfaces for a single connection. MPTCP was evolved for Bandwidth aggregation and re silence to network failure. The wireless networks of multihomed devices are of different characteristics, when used together decreases Quality of Service (QoS). MPTCP schedulers tried to fill this gap with different approaches. In this paper we tried to study these schedulers in different network scenarios and came with the findings that to achieve good throughput and decrease download time, only fast paths are preferred.
