Came across this. Seems the Node.js community would care about it, if nothing else, for situational awareness:
http://www.fujitsu.com/global/news/pr/archives/month/2013/20130129-02.html The problem, of course, is that it's proprietary. Fujitsu Laboratories has succeeded at a software-only approach, developing: > 1) A new protocol that incorporates an efficient proprietarily developed > retransmission method based on user datagram protocol > (UDP)(2<http://www.fujitsu.com/global/news/pr/archives/month/2013/20130129-02.html#footnote1> > ), an optimized way to deliver streaming media able to reduce latency > resulting from data retransmission when packet loss occurs; 2) Control > technology that addresses the problem of UDP transmissions consuming excess > bandwidth by performing a real-time measurement of available network > bandwidth and securing an optimal amount of communications bandwidth > without overwhelming TCP's share of the bandwidth; and 3) Technology that, > by employing the new protocol, makes it possible to easily speed up > existing TCP applications without having to modify them. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
