Another emerging transport-layer protocol is multipath TCP (MPTCP), which is an extension of TCP (Ford et al. 2013). The purpose of MPTCP is to increase system throughput by the use of multiple available paths. In traditional systems, only one type of interface was available for accessing the Internet. However, in modern systems, multiple types of interfaces such as Ethernet, 3 G, and Wi-Fi are available. As a result, the traditional approach does not allow systems to get the benefits offered by the use of multiple interfaces. This is the reason behind the emergence of MPTCP; MPTCP allows systems to use multiple interfaces such as 3 G and Wi-Fi simultaneously. In this way, the overall throughput of the system is increased. Such an approach can especially be helpful for video streaming that demands more resources than normal (Wu et al. 2014, 2014a, 2015, 2015a, 2016, 2016a). The good news is that no new infrastructure is required as such to deploy MPTCP because MPTCP can use the same socket interface as the one used by traditional TCP. Some security issues, however, need to be addressed: multipath routing can result in cross-path data fragmentation, making firewalls and malware scanners inefficient when they only see traffic on a single path. For more information on MPTCP, refer to (Wu et al. 2014, 2014a, 2015, 2015a, 2016, 2016a).
