Query: In-Order Delivery Delay of Transport Layer Coding   A large number of streaming applications use reliable transport protocols
such as TCP to deliver content over the Internet. However, head-of-line
blocking due to packet loss recovery can often result in unwanted behavior and
poor application layer performance. Transport layer coding can help mitigate
this issue by helping to recover from lost packets without waiting for
retransmissions. We consider the use of an on-line network code that inserts
coded packets at strategic locations within the underlying packet stream. If
retransmissions are necessary, additional coding packets are transmitted to
ensure the receiver's ability to decode. An analysis of this scheme is provided
that helps determine both the expected in-order packet delivery delay and its
variance. Numerical results are then used to determine when and how many coded
packets should be inserted into the packet stream, in addition to determining
the trade-offs between reducing the in-order delay and the achievable rate. The
analytical results are finally compared with experimental results to provide
insight into how to minimize the delay of existing transport layer protocols.
