Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, the demands for data center has been increasing with the wide spread of various cloud services. In the future, multiple data centers operated by different cloud providers will be interconnected to provide a new kind of services, namely big data. This paper assumes that data centers located all over the world are connected each other through the Internet (i.e., data center networks). Then, to achieve efficient data transmission over the data center networks, Multipath TCP (MPTCP) that can effectively make use of multiple pathes, is employed. Although current MPTCP tries to improve the throughput performance, its congestion and retransmission control directly cannot be applied to communication in data center networks. Therefore, in this paper, the following three sorts of functions are proposed to satisfy the requirements for long flows and short flows as data center traffic, even when these flows are transmitted over the Internet with high bandwidth-delay products (BDP): (1) a new multipath congestion control technique based on Cubic TCP, (2) packet allocation method reducing out-of-order packets, and (3) retransmission mechanism in which loss packets are retransmitted by multiple subflows. Through simulations, the proposed scheme improves the throughput performance of long flows drastically, while remarkably reducing the latency due to out-of-order arrival of short flows.
