Abstract :
In modern systems it is very vital to have an efficient data transmission mechanism. This becomes more critical factor when it is involved with a system like a way finding application for vision impaired people or a medical system that notifies the doctor´s smartphone when the patient´s heart rate goes down. The size of the data that is used frequently by the mentioned systems is relatively small. Additionally it might take more time for connection establishment despite of the requirement of urgency. Thus this kind of data transmission is not ideal for such systems. Therefore this diversity of data transmission makes a special category of systems that needs a reliable, efficient data transfer mechanism since requirements of those systems such as low latency, reliability are not being fully satisfied by the current Transport Layer Protocol (TLP) selection mechanism.
