....: 317 B Invariance proofs for T CP C Invariance proofs for BT CP D Invariance proofs for T T CP 9 10 Introduction The original motivation for this work was to do a formal verification of an experimental transport level protocol called T TCP. This protocol, by Braden and Clark [8, 6, 7], is designed to be a unified transport protocol in that it should work well for both transactions and streaming. A transaction is typically a request from a client and a response from a server. Streaming, on the other hand, is the sending of significant amounts of data. The idea behind the design ....

....certain actions, or a host times out and closes if it waits too long for a reply to a message. 1.2.3 Verification of T TCP After specifying the problem and formally verifying both versions of TCP, the next step in our verification of T TCP was to show that it implements TCP. As described in [8, 6, 7], T TCP does not require timeouts if responses are not received within specified time bounds. We observed that under certain circumstances T TCP without timeouts does not behave the way TCP does, and in fact does not satisfy the specification we have for TCP. More specifically, when there is a ....

....for multiple Web transfers, thereby amortizing the connection setup overhead, but still pays the slow start penalty. Since the average Web document (including the inline Web objects) is only around 30KB [25] such penalty is significant enough to limit the performance benefit of P HTTP. T TCP [6] bypasses the three way handshaking by having the sender start transmitting data in the first segment sent (along with the SYN) 1] In addition, T TCP proposes temporal sharing of TCP control block (TCB) state, including maximum segment size (MSS) smoothed RTT, and RTT variance [6] 7] also ....

....what it considers to be this lost segment without waiting for the full timeout. This saves time. After a fast retransmit, a sender invokes the fast recovery [RFC2581] algorithm, whereby it invokes congestion avoidance, but not slow start. This also saves time. 4. 2 Connection Setup with T TCP [RFC1397, RFC1644] TCP engages in a three way handshake whenever a new connection is set up. Data transfer is only possible after this phase has completed successfuly. T TCP allows data to be exchanged in parallel with the connection set up, saving valuable time for long delay networks. T TCP clearly has ....

....to estimate the RTT between the two hosts, starting with a conservative default value. An alternative scheme is to share RTT information between such parallel connections. Transient performance would improve, because individual connections do not have to rediscover information. Braden [7, 8] first described how caching TCB state gathered by a previous connection instance can be used to avoid inefficiencies when opening a similar new connection. Touch named this case temporal sharing [1] and extended the idea of TCB caching by suggesting that TCB state can be aggregated and shared ....

The remainder of this section will not discuss operation of mechanisms inherited from T TCP, these are described elsewhere [7, 8]. 3.1. Connection Open Whenever a connection is opened, E TCP checks if the new connection can be associated with either an active or cached ECB based on its destination. There are three cases: 1. no active or cached ECB can be found 2. a cached ECB is found 3. an active ECB is found In the ....

....example being remote procedure call. Transport level protocols such as TCP [14] and ISO TP 4 [9] work well for data streaming, but are inefficient for transactions. However, several protocols [19, 11, 17] have been designed to meet both needs, including a proposed extension of TCP call T TCP [4, 5]. The goal of T TCP is not to perform efficient transactions all the time, but only under certain conditions. However, in examining T TCP [18] we observed that in certain situations the protocol may deliver the same message twice, even when efficient transactions are not required. This observation ....

Braden and Clark [4, 5] have also designed a protocol to achieve efficient transactions and work well for data streaming. Their protocol does not rely on approximately synchronized clocks or strict enforcement of MPL. Their approach is based on the idea that some information related to incarnations can be stored ....

....mechanism, but since we decided to implement a prototype of a GSA, we accepted the performance implications of using message queues. 15 Because we use the unicast connection only for sending a response to the requesting GSA, a transactional variant of TCP such as T TCP described by Braden [8] would be preferable. However, at the moment we use standard TCP, thus including the overhead of the rather expensive TCP connection establishment and the problem with both ends going to the TIME WAIT state after closing the connection. 14 to the database, where all local objects and relations ....

....transport protocol attempts to provide reliable service for transactions with as few TPDUs as possible, ideally only one for the request and one for the response. This is done by trying to minimize overhead for connection establishment. Transactions share the following characteristics [26]: an asymmetrical model (i.e. client and server) simplex data transfer, short duration, low delay, few data TPDUs, message orientation, and the need for no duplicates service. Examples of transaction oriented protocols include VMTP and T TCP, a backwards compatible TCP extension. 3.4.3 CO ....

....in very high speed networks (Jacobson, Braden, Zhang 1990) unsatisfactory estimation of round trip time, etc. For many applications like RPC, UDP is too unreliable, and TCP provides reliability at excessive cost. We need a protocol that can provide right kind of service for such transactions (Braden 1992). The three way handshake to establish a connection introduces a time lag of one round trip time before data can be sent. This creates performance problems in high delay networks like satellite channels. Moreover the congestion control mechanisms of TCP (Stevens 1997) takes too long a time to ....
