Simulation-based comparison of TCP retransmission timeout estimators /

The implementation of the retransmission timeout estimator for TCP re-initializes the timer with the retransmit timeout (RTO) after receiving an acknowledgement (ACK), if any more segments are in flight. This allows an additional time, up to a round-trip time (RTT), for the ACK of the next segment t...
