The other application of our TCP over UDP protocol was to characterize path performance for a TCP like protocol. The Treno tool [20] also tries to characterize the TCP behavior of a path using UDP or ICMP packets with sequence numbers, timeouts, and a TCP like slow start and congestion avoidance. Treno is a sender side only test, relying on ICMP packets from the target to return the transmitted sequence numbers. More recently, ....

.... Router ICMP Generation Delays Ramesh Govindan and Vern Paxson International Computer Science Institute Berkeley, CA USA ramesh, vern icsi.berkeley.edu Abstract A number of Internet measurement techniques rely on eliciting ICMP replies from routers inside the network [7] [9]. One question regarding the accuracy of these techniques concerns whether routers introduce delays when generating the ICMPs. We present a technique for estimating these delays. The approach is based on sending packets with spoofed source addresses, some with sufficient TTL to travel all the way ....

....routers along the path to the destination. However, inferring anything useful about network performance, as opposed to simply topology, requires analyzing the timing associated with packets as they traverse the network. For example, pathchar [7] and the related clink [5] and pchar [8] and treno [9] both send large numbers of TTL limited packets in order to analyze the delays between the transmissions of the packets and the receipt of the corresponding ICMP replies. This is also sometimes done with much less precision for traceroute timings in order to locate the source of unexpected delays ....

....bottleneck link s bandwidth [14] Another example, cprobe [5] sends a short sequence of echo packets between two hosts. By assuming that almost fair queueing occurs during the short packet sequence, cprobe provides an estimate for the available bandwidth along the path between the hosts. Treno [17] uses TCP like flow control and congestion control algorithms to estimate available bandwidth. The work in [2] mentions a technique for estimating the available bandwidth based on the asymptotic dispersion rate (ADR) method. Part of our work is related to ADR, and we share the view that the ADR ....

....To integrate distributed data together will require approaches for overlap detection and hole filling. To address this problem, we plan to explore and extend the techniques developed in previous work of distributed network monitoring such as SCAN [22] and recent work in network tomography [9, 38, 51, 10, 11], and employ new algorithms and tools to merge distributed data into a coherent model. Measurement study of Internet traces shows that the WAN performance is reasonably stable over terms of several minutes; meanwhile, nearby hosts experience similar or identical throughput performance within a ....

....the effectiveness of the technique by showing how it can be used to forecast long HTTP transfers using a combination of short NWS TCP IP bandwidth probes and previously observed HTTP transfers. Using short TCP IP messages to predict steadystate throughput is the subject of significant research [6, 13, 28]. Our particular experimental verification is similar to the work described in [27] but unlike that work, our new method does not rely on linear regression. Our results indicate that the combination of short NWS bandwidth probes and previous HTTP history can be used to generate more accurate ....
