Performance Analysis of SPDY Protocol in Wired and Mobile Networks

摘要

Google proposed the new application-layer protocol named SPDY with the purpose of complementing problems of HTTP/1.1 to improve web speed. In this paper we evaluate the SPDY protocol's performance in a variety of mobile environment to examine the characteristics of the SPDY protocol and compare the differences between the existing protocol and SPDY protocol. Also through this performance evaluation, we analyze the problem of SPDY and propose directions for improvement of this protocol.
