Abstract

This paper studies the behavior of ARDP, a request- response transport protocol, when operating in a shared communication infrastructure like the Internet. Our experiments demonstrate that ARDP backs off in the presence of congestion, yet tries to take advantage of available bandwidth. We also show that ARDP is well- behaved when competing for network resources with TCP.
