An Analysis of SCTP in Best-Effort Network With Competing Flows
This study focuses on Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), which is defined by IETF in RFC 4960 as a new transport protocol. SCTP features such as multi-homing and multi-streaming, has attracted multimedia applications to use it as their transport protocol instead of UDP and TCP. However, th...
