Analysis of Equal cost Adaptive Routing Algorithms using Connection-Oriented and Connectionless Protocols

This research paper evaluates and compares the performance of equal cost adaptive multi-path routing algorithms taking the transport protocols TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) using network simulator ns2 and concludes which one is better.
