Abstract :
In considering transport layer protocols for multimedia applications in high-speed networks, several chacteristics of multimedia applications have to be considered. These characteristics include high-speed transmission capability, real-time constraints, and large bandwidth required by applications, and packet loss of some percentage is acceptable in some multimedia applications. A transport layer protocol for high-speed multimedia applications, namely MHTP (multimedia high-speed transport protocol), is proposed to resolve problems in interworking multimedia systems using high-speed networks
