The existence of excessively large and too filled net- work buffers, known as bufferbloat, has recently gained attention as a major performance problem for delay-sensitive applications. One important network scenario where bufferbloat may occur is cellular networks. This paper investigates the interaction between TCP congestion control and buffering in cellular networks. Extensive measurements have been … Continue reading

RITE project jointly organises Workshop on Reducing Internet Latency
The Workshop on Reducing Internet Latency will take place 25-26 Sep 2013 in London. The Reducing Internet Transport Latency (RITE) project jointly organised the workshop with the Internet Society (ISOC). The workshop aims to identify where coordinated industry action is necessary to reduce latency. Attendance is by invitation, based on acceptance of a short position … Continue reading

Accepted paper for publication in IEEE Communication Letters
LEDBAT is a congestion control mechanism made for applications, like peer-to-peer file transfers or software updates, that can easily saturate an end user’s Internet access. LEDBAT was designed with minimizing delay as its main goal, hence, to have as little an impact as possible on users’ applications that are sensitive to delay. This includes not … Continue reading
RITE: Working Smarter not Harder will make the Internet Faster.
Good news for the Internet: a team of Europe’s best Internet researchers have come together to make the Internet faster, without having to invest in more capacity. They have noticed that many Internet sessions don’t need more bandwidth to go faster, they need less delay, also known as latency. They already have a number of … Continue reading
