| Abstract | Many current wireless wide area packet data networks are characterized by very low and variable bandwidths, very high and variable delays, significant non-congestion related loss, asymmetric uplink and downlink channels, and occasional blackouts. Additionally, the majority of the latency in a WWAN connection is incurred over the wireless link. Under such operating conditions, most contemporary wireless TCP algorithms do not perform very well. Sinha, Venkitaraman, Sivakumar and Bharghavan (see Proc. of ACM Mobicom '99, 1999) we presented WTCP, a reliable transport protocol that is designed to operate efficiently and fairly over wireless wide area networks. WTCP is rate-based, uses only end-to-end mechanisms, performs rate control at the receiver, and uses the ratio of sending rate to receiving rate as as the primary metric for rate control. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WTCP over CDPD networks. We have implemented and evaluated WTCP over the CDPD network, and also simulated it in the ns-2 simulator. Our performance results indicate that WTCP can improve on the performance of comparable algorithms such as TCP-NewReno and TCP-Vegas by between 20% to 200% for typical operating conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
