Abstract: TCP-over-OBS is a promising transport paradigm to support next-generation-Internet. Load-balanced OBS improves loss- performance. We identify the ill-effects of load-balancing on TCP-performance due to false-time-outs and false-triple-duplicates. We propose source-ordering to improve TCP-throughput by three-four times.
