Overview:

Many TCP connections show an asymmetric traffic pattern where significantly more data is sent in one direction than the other resulting in large numbers of ACK-only packets to be generated. This paper proposes and evaluates two independent approaches for how to make better use of the available space in TCP ACK-only packets to improve data transfer. The first approach provides packet-efficient throughput in the reverse direction of a connection without sacrificing forward throughput, while the second approach provides more detailed and complete information about the state of the forward connection that could be used by a TCP implementation to obtain better throughput under different network conditions.
