....proposed by Becker et al. 17] which includes a JAVA based prototype implemented within a gigabyte router testbed. Another JAVA based distributed architecture, RWANDA, also focuses on middleware support for enhanced QOS services, in the domain of high latency environments such as the Internet [18]. As the goal of the architecture is to provide a highly adaptable service, a reconfigurable protocol stack to support arbitrary userdefined protocols has been implemented. The architecture also provides application level control over common transmission and synchronization tasks. III. MERGING ....

....none of these approaches have been used to construct transport services that are customizable to the same degree as CTP. Similar composition models have been used in recent systems. For example, RWANDA dynamically builds a protocol stack by composing a linear sequence of modules chosen at runtime [29]. The work on Protocol Boosters [30] focuses on improving the performance of existing protocols by adding booster components that can be combined by nesting, resulting in a linear order of booster components. Finally, hierarchical composition models are used in the Horus [31] and Ensemble [32] ....

....for interchangeability. Module interactions in these systems are typically limited to message exchange between adjacent modules in the composition graph. Examples of such composition models include the System V Streams [24] the x kernel [9] CORDS [10] Horus [11] Ensemble [25] and Rwanda [26]. To our knowledge, none of these approaches have been used to construct transport services that are customizable to the same degree as CTP. The Cactus model provides a more flexible framework for constructing configurable transport protocols than any of the hierarchical models. Cactus does not ....
