News

• The results of kernel 2.6.25-rc3 and HyStart are currently being recovered. Sorry for your inconvenience. Please visit the site again.

Real Deployment Results

Experimental results

• Testing between Korea and Japan The RTT between Korea and Japan is usually less than 50ms.

Dummynet Testbed Results

Experimental results with net-2.6.22.git (David S. Miller's git tree)

• Intra protocol fairness testing with net-2.6.22.git CUBIC, BIC, HTCP, HSTCP, STCP, SACK, VEGAS, WESTWOOD, HYBLA, ILLINOIS, and LP

SACK processing efficiency

• Efficiency of SACK processing Comparison among kernel 2.6.13 (SACK patch), 2.6.18-rc4 (CUBIC v2.1 patch), and 2.6.20.3 (CUBIC v2.1 patch).

Experimental results with kernel 2.6.18-rc4 with the CUBIC v2.1 patch

• Intra protocol fairness testing with kernel 2.6.18-rc4 CUBIC, HTCP, and HSTCP protocols
• TCP friendliness testing with kernel 2.6.18-rc4 CUBIC, HTCP, and HSTCP protocols
• Spare capacity usage testing with kernel 2.6.18-rc4 CUBIC, HTCP, HSTCP, and SACK protocols
• Impact of background traffic testing with kernel 2.6.18-rc4 CUBIC, HTCP, and HSTCP protocols

Experimental results with kernel 2.6.13 with the following patches: BIC patch CUBIC v2.0 patch SACK patch

• Fairness, convergence time, RTT fairness, and TCP friendliness with and without background traffic Technical ReportResults
• Stability testing results of High-speed protocols [1]

NS2 Simulation Results

• TCP Testing with NS2

Other Groups' work

• Highspeed TCP (maintained by Sally Floyd). It includes RFCs and simulation and implementation status of Highspeed TCP (also, it includes introduction to other High-speed protocol proposals). Also, there is a TMRG (The Transport Modeling Research Group) page that includes a series of documents on Models for the Evaluation of Transport Protocols to improve the methodologies for evaluating transport protocols.
• Stanford Linear Accelerator Testbed experiments and report
• Hamiliton Institute Testbed experiments, scripts and report
• Kyushu Research Center released TCP testing results conducted over 10G JGNII backbone. linux-2.6.22-rc4 results and linux-2.6.22-rc4 BIC and CUBIC with a default slow start (by Kazumi Kumazoe)
• Linux-Net TCP Testing at OSDL (by Stephen Hemminger)
• David Wei maintains a LINUX TCP implementation for NS2 web site.
