6 | | Shufeng's 2013 summer internship assignment '''1''': get used to omni and geni portal[[BR]] |
7 | | Simply follow the instructions HERE:[http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/ScalableMonitoring/tcp-geni.pdf] using Omni and GENI Portal. |
| 6 | This Project leverages resources on the ProtoGENI aggregate, using the Omni GENI client. [[BR]] |
| 7 | The objective of this project is to familiarize you with the details of TCP congestion control, and the impact of network conditions on the TCP congestion control algorithms. [[BR]] |
| 8 | You will specifically learn about: [[BR]] |
| 9 | * The [http://www.hjp.at/doc/rfc/rfc2582.txt NewReno] loss recovery and intertwined congestion control mechanisms [[BR]] |
| 10 | * The [http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1400105 CUBIC] congestion control mechanism [[BR]] |
| 11 | * The impact of the ''ssthresh'' and ''cwnd'' TCP state variables on TCP network performance [[BR]] |
| 12 | * Measuring the performance of TCP flows [[BR]] |
| 13 | * The impact of path delay and bottleneck bandwidth on TCP performance [[BR]] |
| 14 | * TCP fairness concerns [[BR]] |
| 15 | * The Linux pluggable congestion control module interface |
