  • Abstract
    The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used by the vast majority of Internet applications. Since its introduction in the 70s, a lot of variants have been proposed to cope with the different network conditions we can have (e.g., wired networks, wireless networks, satellite links) and nowadays Linux OS includes 12 different TCP variants. The aim of this paper is to offer a complete comparative analysis of the behavior offered by these variants, in terms of throughput and fairness.
