Implementing DCCP: Differences from TCP and UDP
Andrea Bittau, Mark James Handley · 2007
We describe our experiences in contributing to the implementation of a new protocol, DCCP, in the Linux kernel.Being the first implementation in a main-stream operating system, we are the first ones to explore the implications and the unexpected issues that could arise from developing this protocol.We will focus on how the DCCP implementation differs from that of TCP and the performance issues that we have encountered.
