This is an implementation of a protocol designed during a university module. In it's current state, it's capable of transmiting and receiving bitwise perfect streams over lossy communication channels. We measured a peak data rate of 12MB/s.
As it is common for Rust, you need cargo to run the project.
Rust nightly is required.
Included example applications include: echo_client, echo_server, movie_client, movie_server.
Run them with cargo run --bin <example_name>.
cargo test runs all unit and integration tests.
Unit tests exist for packet parsing and packet serialization, sending and receiving a single data packet, and sending and receiving multiple data packets. It is also tested that 2 + 2 = 4. For some reason this example test was never removed.
connection.rs handles the connection state and packet ordering.
connection_reliability_sender.rs handles the everything related to the
actual sending of packets.
This includes flow control, retransmission, and congestion control.
connection_security.rs handles the signing, encryption and decryption of packets.
packet.rs handles the packet structure.
cookie.rs handles the cookie structure as well as the HMAC calculation.
