....receiver can conserve resources by generating delayed ACKs without impacting the sender s cwnd growth. This mechanism will be called unlimited byte counting (UBC) for the remainder of the paper. Unlimited byte counting has been shown to improve transfer time in limited tests over satellite links [All97]. As will be shown, unlimited byte counting is too aggressive in some circumstances. Therefore, we investigated a limited byte counting (LBC) mechanism, as well. LBC also increases cwnd based on the number of previously unacknowledged bytes covered by each incoming ACK. However, the cwnd increase ....
