B-Reno: A New TCP Implementation Designed for TCP over OBS Networks
Yan Zhang, Sheng Wang, Lemin Li · 2007
In this paper we propose B-Reno, a new TCP implementation designed for TCP over OBS networks. B-Reno can overcome the inefficiencies of Reno and 'New-Reno in dealing with consecutive multiple packet losses and thus improve their throughputs over OBS networks. Moreover, B-Reno can also achieve performance similar with that of SACK over OBS networks while avoiding SACK'S complex mechanisms at both the sender's and the receiver's protocol stack.
