Abstract

Many new network applications demand interprocess communication (IPC) services that are not supported by existing transport network protocol mechanisms. Large bandwidth-delay products of high-speed networks also render the existing error control mechanism inefficient. This paper presents the design, evaluation, and implementations of an application-oriented error control scheme that can support efficient IPC for these applications in high-speed network environments.
