Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) To improve TCP throughput performance, a method using a PEP (Performance Enhancing Proxy) has been proposed. The PEP operates on a router along a TCP connection. When a data packet arrives at the PEP, it forwards the packet to the destination host, transmits the corresponding ACK (premature ACK) to the source host in behalf of the destination host, and stores a copy of the packet in its own buffer (PEP buffer) in case retransmission of the packet is required. As a congestion control method on the PEP, a method which keeps the number of prematurely acknowledged packets in the PEP buffer below a threshold (watermark) value has been proposed, and we have investigated the relation between the watermark value and the average throughput. In this paper, based on the relation, we propose an watermark optimization algorithm which can adaptively maximize the average throughput of each connection and also satisfy a fairness condition that the average throughputs of connections are equal to each other. We also show some numerical examples using the proposed algorithm.
