Here's a pretty interesting experiment by someone curious if it was possible to implement a new transport layer protocol, basically something totally different than the existing few than everything ...

From plain old transmission control protocol (TCP) to newly conceived protocols, the variety of methods for delivering video across the internet is a key area of interest for the entire streaming ...

In the past we considered transport protocols such as RTP (Real-time Protocol), ABR (Adaptive Bit Rate), SDVoE (Software Defined Video over Ethernet), SRT (Secure Reliable Transport), QUIC (Quick ...

Microsoft this week described QUIC, an Internet transport layer protocol alternative to the venerable Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), in an announcement. QUIC 1.0 is "less than 4 months old" but ...
