Abstract:
This document describes a modified algorithm for managing the TCP and
SCTP retransmission timers that provides faster loss recovery when a
connection's amount of outstanding data is small. 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.
