Experimental evaluation of multipath TCP schedulers (2014, methodology): “But only a limited environment has been used in the evaluation and improvements to the schedulers [16] were not yet part of the Multipath TCP implementation.”

Reproducible network experiments using container-based emulation (2012, background): “HULL [38] By sacriﬁcing a small amount of bandwidth, HULL can reduce average and tail latencies in data center networks. replicated MPTCP [39] Multipath TCP increases performance over multiple wireless interfaces versus TCP and can perform seamless wireless handoffs. replicated Over 3G and WiFi,…”
A measurement-based study of MultiPath TCP performance over wireless networks (2013, background): “The mobile client is a Lenovo X220 laptop and has a built-in 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi interface.”
Multipath QUIC: Design and Evaluation (2017, methodology): “Under those conditions, MPTCP uses the Opportunistic Retransmission and Penalisation (ORP) [41] mechanism that also leads to retransmissions of packets from the slow path over the fast path, limiting overall goodput.”
The QUIC Transport Protocol: Design and Internet-Scale Deployment (2017, background): “As a result, even modifying TCP remains challenging due to its ossification by middleboxes [29, 49, 54].”
