We provide a ready-to-use interactive demo of the thin stream scheduler of our IEE ICC 2018 paper and ready-to-use evaluation setups.
Multipath TCP Scheduling for Thin Streams: Active Probing and One-way Delay-awareness
by Alexander Frömmgen, Jens Heuschkel, Boris Koldehofe
Please follow the Getting Started Instructions on the main page to install ProgMP. We extended the ProgMP Kernel to support one-way delay estimates, i.e., each subflow provides the following two additional properties:
An estimator of the outgoing packet delay. Note that this is not an estimator of the actual delay, but enables a comparison between subflows. Please check the paper for additional details.
An estimator of the incoming packet delay. Note that this is not an estimator of the actual delay, but enables a comparison between subflows. Please check the paper for additional details.
A separate patch for the one-way delay-estimations is available.
Thin streams, e.g., of online games, SSH- and control-connections, are usally long running connections which exihibit only a few packet per round-trip time.
This work has been funded by MAKI to make the Internet more adaptive.
