Abstract


The current Internet architecture has limitations that interfere with its development. Due to the accentuated growth of new applications demands, the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) model presents limitations making it complex. The Recursive InterNetwork Architecture (RINA) is an architecture proposal for the Internet of the future based on inter process communication that proposes solutions to solve the main limitations in the conventional Internet structure. This paper presents a comparative study of data transfer performances in RINA and TCP/IP architectures. The results otained with the experiments lead to the conclusion that RINA presents a better performance in relation to the TCP/IP architecture when the delays are insufficient to interfere in the transmission of the data. Moreover, through the exploratory analysis of the data, when the large delays, RINA, through its control mechanisms, solves the congestion problem more effectively due to its recursive nature in relation to the TCP / IP model.
