Analysis of TCP Performance in Data Center Networks

• Introduction.- The Transmission Control Protocol.- Modeling Incast and its Empirical Validation.- Addressing TCP Incast.- Conclusions and Future Work.

From the reviews: "This book precisely discusses the performance of TCP in data center networks and methods to overcome the TCP incast problem. In general, the concepts, problems, and solutions related to the performance of TCP in high-speed networks discussed in this book will be of interest to all network engineers and researchers. ... The lists of references ... present good quality research work carried out to study the performance of TCP in computer networks, and should be used for further study."
