Abstract: | With the rapid development of high speed network such as ATM, traditional transport protocols such as TCP cannot take advantage of the capacity of modern network hardware. A new transport protocol based on ATM, called HSTP (high speed transport protocol), was proposed. The details of HSTP are described. Performance measurements of HSTP, ATM, TCP in the testbed are presented. The protocol provides low latency data transport services for applications on NOW by selective repeat, periodic state exchange, hybrid acknowledgements, using simple buffer and timer management strategies, copy avoidance, block transport for bulk data, and so on. |
