title = "TCP vegas: New techniques for congestion detection and avoidance",
abstract = "Vegas is a new implementation of TCP that achieves between 40 and 70% better throughput, with one-fifth to onehalf the losses, as compared to the implementation of TCP in the Reno distribution of B SD Unix. This paper motivates and describes the three key techniques employed by Vegas, and presents the results of a comprehensive experimental performance study - using both simulations and measurements on the Internet - of the Vegas and Reno implementations of TCP.",

note = "Funding Information: This section discusses measurements of TCP over the Internet. Because it is simple to move a protocol between the simulator and the “real world”, the numbers reported in this section are for exactly the same code as in the previous section. Our results must be considered preliminary because they were limited to transfers between the University of Arizona (UA) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The connection consists of 17 hops, and passes through Denver, St. Louis, Chicago, Cleveland, New York and Washington DC.
