A protocol extension, which is denoted as CMT-SCTP, extends SCTP by supporting Concurrent Multipath Transfer~(CMT). That is, multiple network paths are utilized simultaneously in order to improve the payload data throughput. However, dissimilar paths -- i.e.\ paths having different delays or bandwidths -- are challenging and also very likely in internet setups. In this paper, we show how CMT-SCTP data transport performance can be improved by combining multi-streaming with an advanced stream scheduling policy and SCTP API enhancements. The performance benefit of our approach in dissimilar path setups is proven by simulations.}", url = "https://www.wiwi.uni-due.de/fileadmin/fileupload/I-TDR/SCTP/Paper/PFLDNeT2010.pdf", url.size = "648086", url.md5 = "18c2a0c4862d943aa53ff719459d7203", url.mime = "application/pdf", url.pagesize = "595.276 x 841.89 pts (A4)", url.checked = "2014-04-02 17:08:23 CEST", note = "{ISSN} 2074-5168" }
