  • Abstract
    The datagram congestion control protocol (DCCP) is a new transport protocol standard that the IETF recently proposed. Because DCCP simultaneously features congestion control and unreliable transmission, it´s especially suited to multimedia streaming applications and has thus received much attention. This article introduces DCCP´s main characteristics and operation.
