2,202 citations recorded by the source corpus.

This document describes the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). SCTP is designed to transport PSTN signaling messages over IP networks, but is capable of broader applications.

Flow Monitoring Explained: From Packet Capture to Data Analysis With NetFlow and IPFIX (2014, methodology): “Since much more effort has gone into TCP stack optimization than SCTP stack optimization, the latter can be slower than TCP.”
Concurrent Multipath Transfer Using SCTP Multihoming Over Independent End-to-End Paths (2006, methodology): “inactive due to failure [2]).”
Data Offloading Techniques in Cellular Networks: A Survey (2015, methodology): “The scheduling logic is implemented above SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) [92], which natively can bind multiple IP addresses at each communication endpoint.”
Microsoft (2019, neutral): “EAP is a lock-step protocol and does not support an efficient reliable transport service as in TCP [RFC793] or SCTP [RFC2960].”
UDT: UDP-based data transfer for high-speed wide area networks (2007, background): “General protocols like UDP, TCP, DCCP [41], and SCTP [58] should still exist inside the kernel space of operating systems, but OS vendors may be reluctant to support too many protocols and algorithms, especially those application specific or network specific ones.”
Toward Software-Defined Cellular Networks (2012, methodology): “That said, cellular networks would benefit from support for deeppacket inspection, header compression, and message-based control protocols like SCTP [2].”
A data-oriented (and beyond) network architecture (2007, methodology): “This not a new concept, as application-layer framing has been advocated in [7] and adopted by many modern protocols (such as SCTP [33]); here we are merely noting that it .ts well within the DONA approach.”
Multipath QUIC: Design and Evaluation (2017, methodology): “New transport protocols such as SCTP [46] generated interest [5], but are still not widely deployed.”
Delay-Tolerant Networking Architecture (2007, background): “A protocol with more relaxed ordering constraints (e.g. SCTP [RFC2960]) might be preferable in such circumstances.”
A Cross-Layer (Layer 2 + 3) Handoff Management Protocol for Next-Generation Wireless Systems (2006, background): “Moreover, work is going on in the IETF to modify the Stream Control Transmission Protocol [32] to allow it to dynamically change endpoint addresses in the midst of a connection [10], [13].”
