Kevin L Mills, Jeff W Gura, C. Michael Chernick · 1985
A measurement system to evaluate the performance of open system interconnection (OSI) transport protocol implementations is described.Several metrics are proposed to establish a quantitative characterization of layered protocol performance.Metrics specific to the OSI transport protocol are also proposed.The measurement system and metrics were applied to a multi -vendor National Computer Conference demonstration network and the results are reported.
