TCP is an old, very well tested, and venerable protocol. It has enabled reliable internet connections for decades. And yet, it has well-known problems that are causing researchers and engineers to develop new transport-layer protocols. Some of these problems are being exacerbated by changes to the internet’s architecture, including the growing number of slow and high-latency wireless connections generated by mobile devices.
