This lecture covers the concept of Multipath TCP (MPTCP), a modification of TCP that spreads data across multiple subflows to enhance efficiency and reliability. It explains the setup of MPTCP sessions, data transfer mechanisms, and how MPTCP handles failures. The lecture also delves into MPTCP congestion control algorithms, design goals, and performance evaluation. Additionally, it explores the benefits of MPTCP in wireless and mobile networks, as well as its application in scenarios involving hidden terminals and network coding.
