Abstract

Empirical studies comparing the speed or rate of data transmission of various file transfer software versus Windows default file transfer utility have rarely been attempted. Here we describe an implementation of the file transfer utility (prototype) integrating the concepts of multi-threading, dynamic buffer partitioning, and Tel’s knapsack algorithm and conducting an experiment against Windows 7 default file transfer utility (commercial) with regards to their transmission rate. Presented here is our motivation, experimental approach, issues in attempting this type of empirical study, and a summary of the experimental results and insights gained.
