Title : Stream Schedulers and User Message Interleaving for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol Authors : Randall R. Stewart Michael Tuexen Salvatore Loreto Robin Seggelmann Filename : draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-ndata-03.txt Pages : 14 Date : 2015-03-09 Abstract: The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a message oriented transport protocol supporting arbitrary large user messages. However, the sender can not interleave different user messages which causes head of line blocking at the sender side. To overcome this limitation, this document adds a new data chunk to SCTP. Whenever an SCTP sender is allowed to send a user data, it can possibly choose from multiple outgoing SCTP streams. Multiple ways for this selection, called stream schedulers, are defined. Some of them don't require the support of user message interleaving, some do.
