Undergraduate Researcher March 2009 - July 2009
I researched TCP Advanced Congestion Control Algorithms. I have implemented TCP Adaptive Westwood on a Linux kernel in order to compare its throughput versus packet-loss with other algorithms. Also, I ran client-server media streams using Capacity and Congestion Probing to demonstrate the effectiveness of the protocol regarding stable data flow. These implementations of TCP were developed by my advisor and his team at UCLA.
