[Taps] extending the meeting a few minutes to accommodate another talk

[Aaron Falk <[e-mail]>]

Hi Folks-

Yesterday there was an interesting talk at the IRTF/ACM Applied Networking Research Workshop that is relevant to TAPS.  Since our slot is only an hour and our agenda already full, I would like to propose extending the meeting 10 minutes to accommodate it.  We’ll be eating into the free time before the Bits-and-Bytes social so I don’t think anyone will miss any scheduled activities but I am aware that folks sometimes schedule meetings during the breaks.  I hope this doesn’t inconvenience anyone.  

Here is the abstract of the ANRW talk and the updated agenda:

Implementing Real-Time Transport Services over an Ossified Network

Stephen McQuistin (University of Glasgow), Colin Perkins (University of Glasgow), and Marwan Fayed (University of Stirling)

Real-time applications require a set of transport services not currently provided by widely-deployed transport protocols. Ossification prevents the deployment of novel protocols, restricting solutions to protocols using either TCP or UDP as a substrate. We describe the transport services required by real-time applications. We show that, in the short-term (i.e., while UDP is blocked at current levels), TCP offers a feasible substrate for providing these services. Over the longer term, protocols using UDP may reduce the number of networks blocking UDP, enabling a shift towards its use as a demultiplexing layer for novel transport protocols.

Updated TAPS agenda:

1. Chairs update - 5min

2. Update on draft-ietf-taps-transports-usage - 10 min (Naeem Khademi ) – updated draft promised by the authors. 

3. Update on draft-fairhurst-taps-transports-usage-udp - 5 min (Gorry Fairhurst) – already updated.

4. Update on draft-gjessing-taps-minset - 10 min (Michael Welzl) - updated draft promised by the authors. 

5. Investigation on the use on happy eyeballs for transport protocol selection - 10 min (Anna Brunström)

6. Post socket - 10 min (Brian Trammell)

7. Socket intents - 5 min (Philipp Tiesel) 

8. Implementing Real-Time Transport Services over an Ossified Network - 10 miin (Stephen McQuistin)

See you Thursday,
