Abstract :
This paper studies an effect of utilization of Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP) on QoE for Web services. The authors consider the Web usability as QoE and assess it by experiments with subjects; they compare the results of MPTCP with those of TCP. The experimental results show the followings. Indeed the utilization of MPTCP can provide higher QoS of the target Webservices than that of TCP, but it does not always improve QoE.
