Abstract
Concurrent downloads open multiple parallel connections to improve users´ download latency. They break at user level the fairness which congestion control schemes try to maintain at connection level. They also change the network traffic statistics and challenge the performance of congestion control schemes. In this paper, we study concurrent downloads´ challenges to congestion control system´s fairness and transient behavior.
