ABSTRACT:
In a data communication network operated under the TCP/IP suite of protocols the invention adds an adaptive streaming (AS) layer, inserted between the IP and the TCP protocol layers, in which the received data packets of each open TCP connection are temporarily queued and from where they are first reordered then, delivered to the TCP layer at a pace matching the optimal receiving rate of TCP connections. Thus, the invention adds a rate-based transmission mechanism to the TCP layer for the received data packets so as to better adapt to higher-speed communication lines and to reduce drastically the burstiness of the TCP flow control.
