Abstract :
With a vast majority of Internet connections shorter than 10 segments, designing a new fast start-up TCP mechanism is a major concern. While enlarging the Initial Window (IW) up to 10 segments is the fastest solution to deal with a short-lived connection in uncongested networks, numerous researchers are concerned about the impact of the large initial burst on congested networks.
