Abstract:
This document describes a modified algorithm for managing the TCP and
SCTP retransmission timers that provides faster loss recovery when
there is a small amount of outstanding data for a connection. The
modification allows the transport to restart its retransmission timer
more aggressively in situations where fast retransmit cannot be used.
This enables faster loss detection and recovery for connections that
are short-lived or application-limited.
