Title : Architectural Guidelines for Multipath TCP Development
Author(s) : A. Ford, et al.

Often endpoints are connected by multiple paths, but the nature of
TCP/IP restricts communications to a single path per socket.
Resource usage within the network would be more efficient were these
multiple paths able to be used concurrently. This should enhance
user experience through improved resilience to network failure and
higher throughput.
This document outlines architectural guidelines for the development
of a Multipath Transport Protocol, with references to how these
architectural components come together in the Multipath TCP (MPTCP)
protocol. This document also lists certain high level design
decisions that provide foundations for the MPTCP design, based upon
these architectural requirements.
