Improving TCP Throughput in 802.11 WLANs With High Delay Variability
Reduced throughput of TCP over wireless networks is mainly due to misinterpretation of wireless losses as congestion signals and high delay variability because of fluctuating radio channel quality. High delay variability often leads to spurious TCP timeouts which result in severe throughput degradation. This paper shows the negative impact of...

Receiver Buffer Requirement for Video Streaming Over TCP
TCP is one of the most widely used transport protocols for video streaming. However, the rate variability of TCP makes it difficult to provide good video quality. To accommodate the variability, video streaming applications require receiver-side buffering. In current practice, however, there are no systematic guidelines for the provisioning of...

Server Class Disk Drives: How Reliable Are They?
Hard disk drive manufacturers frequently set high expectations for drive reliability from their specifications, test results and "Global returns database". However, field reliability experienced by customers often does not match those expectations. Actual disk drive reliability may differ greatly from the manufacturer's specification and from customer to customer because of...
