Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Thin-client system is a system in which a client transmits a user event such as a mouse or keyboard input to a server and the server returns screen updates of a desktop application to the client. Network traffic in a thin-client system, that is, thin client traffic, is recognized by using two state system, that is consist of interactive data flows and bulk data flows. The interactive data flows mainly transfer character information, and the bulk data flows transfer screen update information. Our purpose is to minimize the latency time of the interactive data flows as well as to keep the performance of whole data flows in order to improve user's operation performance. We run the traffic simulation using the real field data, and show that the latency time of an interactive data flow is almost the sum of queuing delay at the router connecting to the bottleneck link and TCP's transmit delay at the server. We propose techniques of priority queuing of the interactive data flows as well as restraining the retransmission time out of the bulk data flows, and we show the effectiveness of the techniques when the two data flows exist together in a TCP connection as well as when each data flow has its own TCP connection.
