Abstract :
Concurrent transfer is a feasible solution to improve the efficiency and reliability of data communication. In this study, we developed a concurrent transmission control protocol (cTCP), which is based on the TCP but allows concurrent multi-path transfer. Our cTCP effectively minimizes the impact of packet reordering problem under concurrent transfer. Our experimental result confirms that the cTCP can achieve theoretical optimal or a near optimal performance
