TCP, the transmission control protocol, is one of the core protocols governing the Internet: If counted as a computer program, it's the most widely used program in the world. One of TCP's main ...

tcp: BBR congestion control algorithm This patch series implements a new TCP congestion control algorithm: BBR (Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT). A paper with a detailed description of BBR will be ...

A team of six Google engineers has submitted a commit to the Linux networking development group that implements a new computer algorithm for handling TCP traffic congestion control. The team says the ...

Bob Briscoe (Chief researcher at the BT Network Research Centre) is on a mission to tackle one of the biggest problems facing the Internet. He wants the world to know that TCP (Transmission Control ...

On an 80-core computer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, scientists have built a tool that might make networks significantly faster just by coming up with better algorithms. The system, ...

Without the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), the web would cease to function properly. Acting much like a crossing guard, the TCP regulates internet traffic to ensure that online congestion is ...

Computer-designed algorithms for controlling network congestion yield transmission rates two to three times as high as those designed by humans. TCP, the transmission control protocol, is one of the ...
