QUIC-TCP: validation of QUIC-TCP through network simulations

The scalability of QUIC-TCP was examined by expanding previous developmental 11-node, 4-flow topology to over 30 nodes with 11 flows to validate QUIC-TCP for larger networks. The topology was simulated using ns-2 network simulator with the same ns-2 module of FAST-TCP modified to produce QUIC-TCP...

Description
Summary:The scalability of QUIC-TCP was examined by expanding previous developmental 11-node, 4-flow topology to over 30 nodes with 11 flows to validate QUIC-TCP for larger networks. The topology was simulated using ns-2 network simulator with the same ns-2 module of FAST-TCP modified to produce QUIC-TCP agent that the original development used. A symmetrical topology and a random topology were examined. Fairness, aggregate throughput and the object of the utility function were used as validation criteria. It was shown through simulation that QUICTCP optimized the utility function and demonstrated a good balance between aggregate throughput and fairness; therefore QUIC-TCP is indeed scalable to larger networks. === Includes bibliography. === Thesis (M.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2013.
