Implementation of Delta-t Transport Protocol
Delta-t protocol represents a network transport protocol that is currently available only as a specification. The aim of this work is to implement the protocol as a Linux kernel module, extending the current TCP/IP stack. Delta-t supports reliable, connection-oriented, full duplex communication between two endpoints. Main contribution of the protocol is in the area of connection management. No extra packet exchanges are needed for that purpose. Delta-t employs timer-based mechanism in order to avoid connection hazards. Apart from connection management, Delta-t and TCP are quite similar. Therefore, comparison of the two will be provided.
