            Abstract : 
Stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) is a new transport layer protocol which is being standardized by IETF. Multi-homing, one of the most attractive features of SCTP, makes it competitive in high-availability and mobile environments. In this paper, we propose an analytical model for evaluating the performance of SCTP multi-homing. The proposed model has been validated against and found to agree well with simulation results.
