[e2e] TCP Timeouts and TripleDupACK

[Detlef Bosau]

Hi.

Are there some papers out there comparing how often TCP congestion is 
detected by timeout and how often it is detected by triple duplicate ack?

I'm basically interested, whether timeouts could be overcome completely 
or whether there will be a permanent need for a working timeout scheme 
in TCP.

Thanks.

Detlef
