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 ...

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 ...

It’s hard to imagine now, but in the mid-1980s, the Internet came close to collapsing due to the number of users congesting its networks. Computers would request packets as quickly as they could, and ...

TCP friendliness of advanced TCP in high speed network simulated by ns-2: Presentation slides, demo slides, and final report (PDF files). With usage of high speed network in the world, current TCP ...

Aiming to make its public cloud offerings faster and more reliable, Google on Thursday announced the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is now using a new congestion control algorithm called Transmission ...

Google has started using a new congestion control algorithm for its Cloud Platform, following sucessful implementation on google.com and YouTube. TCP BBR achieves higher bandwidth and lower latencies ...

Melbourne network engineers have partnered with Google in an attempt to address traffic congestion and packet loss in data centres. The project, led by Professor Grenville Armitage of the Swinburne ...

Google has developed an algorithm that speeds up TCP/IP, the internet’s primary data transmission protocol, by up to 14% Engineers at Google have developed a new algorithm to speed up TCP, the main ...

When it comes to internet speed, small, often obscure things can make a big difference. Take the congestion control algorithm. A piece of code standardized in the 1980s, the algorithm slows data ...
