We first provide an overview of the FAST TCP project at Caltech, the basic theory and some experimental results. We will then focus on a new dynamic link model that generalizes existing models and agrees more closely with packet-level simulations. We show that FAST TCP flows over a single link are always linearly stable regardless of delay distribution. This result resolves the discrepancy between empirical observations and previous theoretical predictions. The analysis highlights the critical role of self-clocking in TCP stability and the scalability of FAST TCP with respect to delay.
