Kurose and Ross Edition 6 Exercise 3 Question R17 (Page No 287)
Suppose two TCP connections are present over some bottleneck link of rate R bps. Both connections have a huge file to send (in the same direction over the bottleneck link). The transmissions of the files start at the same time. What transmission rate would TCP like to give to each of the connections?

Kurose and Ross Edition 6 Exercise 3 Question R15 (Page No 287)
Suppose Host A sends two TCP segments back to back to Host B over a TCP connection. The first segment has sequence number 90; the second has sequence number 110. How much data is in the first segment? Suppose that the ... segment arrives at B. In the acknowledgment that Host B sends to Host A, what will be the acknowledgment number?

Kurose and Ross Edition 6 Exercise 3 Question R14 (Page No 287)
True or false? Host A is sending Host B a large file over a TCP connection. Assume Host B has no data to send Host A. Host B will not send acknowledgments to Host A because Host B cannot piggyback the acknowledgments ... 4 bytes of data over a TCP connection to Host B. In this same segment the acknowledgment number is necessarily 42.

To address the limitations of IP version 4, a major effort had to be undertaken via IETF that resulted in the design of IP version 6 and there are still is significant reluctance in the adoption of this new version. However, no such major effort is needed to address the limitations of TCP. Explain why this is the case.
