Abstract

In this paper, we propose an AIMD-based TCP load balancing architecture in a backbone network where TCP flows are split between two explicitly routed paths, namely the primary and the secondary paths. We propose that primary paths have strict priority over the secondary paths with [...]

Abstract

Cataloged from PDF version of article. In this thesis, we propose a multi-path TCP load balancing traffic engineering methodology in IP networks. In this architecture, TCP traffic is split at the flow level between the primary and secondary paths in order to prevent the adverse effect [...]

Abstract

International audience; This paper studies and analyses the benefits of favouring the transfer of packets of a TCP flow over a best-effort network. Specifically, we aim at studying whether we could improve the pace of short data request, such as HTTP request, by giving a high priority [...]
