ABSTRACT:
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection-oriented transport layer protocol that offers a full duplex reliable virtual circuit connection between two endpoints. Each received TCP packet in an endpoint contains both control information and data. The complexity of processing this control information in an endpoint is reduced by only periodically processing the control information. In particular, control information in received packets are not processed in an endpoint until either a) a predetermined number of packets are received, or b) a timer expires, whichever occurs first. As a result, this overall decreases the amount of processing associated with the receipt of each TCP packet and improves the performance of the TCP protocol in a high-speed packet network.
