Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) has been a main pillar of internet networks for the last four decades due to its interoperability with the Internet Protocol (IP). Considering the exponential increase of networks around the world, it will only become more crucial during the coming decades.
The goal of this Special Issue is to encourage researchers to publish their original research related to the improvement (or shortcomings) of TCP. Similarly, to encourage industry experts that use this protocol in their day-to-day activities to present the current and upcoming challenges of the protocol.
We invite authentic and unpublished articles that present the advancement of TCP connections, its potential implications for new network architectures, its use in Internet of Things (IoT) networks, TCP security features, and the expansion of TCP performance to address IP mobility challenges. The submitted papers must clearly state what research problem will be solved using TCP protocol, or state how the TCP is challenging the implementation of a solution.
Potential topics for the Special Issue include but are not limited to-
- Advanced TCP connections
- TCP feature improvement hardware and software
- TCP/IP performance for IP mobility challenges in mobile and future aviation
- TCP upcoming challenges in industry (IT/Auditing/Cybersecurity)
- TCP security
- TCP in new network architectures
- TCP use in IoT networks
