Fairness of High-Speed TCP Stacks
Dimitrios Miras, Martin Bateman, Saleem Noel Bhatti · 2008
We present experimental results evaluating fairness of several proposals to change the TCP congestion control algorithm, in support of operation on high bandwidth-delay- product (BDP) network paths. We examine and compare the fairness of New Reno TCP BIC, cubic, hamilton-TCP, highspeed-TCP and Scalable-TCP. We focus on four different views of fairness: TCP-friendliness RTT-fairness, intra- and inter-protocol fairness.
