TCP/IP is the backbone of modern network communication, connecting devices across the world. TCP/IP at its core is a suite of protocols that enables the transmission of data between computers, facilitating the foundation of the interconnected global network. At the Application Layer of TCP/IP is where the interaction between software applications and the network occurs. The user-centric protocols such as HTTP, SMTP, FTP, POP3, IMAP and DNS facilitate various tasks at this layer such as web browsing, email communication, and file transfer. This comprehensive survey conducted an exploration of the performance, security and privacy issues at the application layer of the TCP/IP. It initiated by providing a background of TCP/IP model, it’s architecture and the core characteristics, with major focus on the application layer. This paper aimed to discuss the state-of-the-art of performance, privacy and security concerns in TCP/IP application layer. It also proposed future research areas to equip researchers, practitioners, policy makers and the decision makers with tangible knowledge, offering guidance in navigating the performance, privacy and security concerns in TCP/IP Application Layer. It aimed to discuss the current performance, privacy and security research gaps at the Application Layer of the TCP/IP Model. The findings of this research sheds light on the performance, privacy and security issues while suggesting the countermeasures to strengthen and optimize the overall performance, security and privacy of TCP/IP model at the application layer. The paper finally suggests future directions and research areas at the TCP/IP application layer.

“…After analysing the connections between every match field, RETCAM divides the redundancy between various fields into three categories. The author [35] offers the foundation for a review of current packet header compression research and standards. Based on the quantity and complexity of activities that must be completed on the flow table, RETCAM's task-based compression scheme dynamically adjusts the TCAM's size [33].…”

The size of the TCAM memory grows as more entries are added to the flow table of Open Flow switch. The procedure of looking up an IP address involves finding the longest prefix. In order to keep up with the link speed, the IP lookup operation in the forwarding table should also need to be speed up. TCAM's scalability and storage are constrained by its high power consumption and circuit density. The only time-or space-efficient algorithms for improvement are the subject of several research studies. In order to boost performance even further, this study focuses on time and space efficient algorithms. To strike a balance between speedy data access and efficient storage, this study proposes a combination of compression and a quick look-up mechanism to satisfy the space and speed requirements of the Open Flow switch. As the data is compressed, performance improves because less memory is required to store the look-up table and fewer bits are required to search. The look up complexity of proposed approach is O(log (log n/2)) and average space reduction is 61%.

Providing support to address the challenges posed by resource-constrained devices by employing efficient packet and header compression techniques, effectively reducing overhead [78]. In addition, IPv6 incorporates adaptation and fragmentation mechanisms to handle packet loss and variable link quality in low-power nodes.…”

Networking protocols have undergone significant developments and adaptations to cater for unique communication needs within the IoT paradigm. However, meeting these requirements in the context of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications becomes a multidimensional problem due to factors like high mobility, intermittent connectivity, rapidly changing topologies, and an increased number of nodes. Thus, examining these protocols based on their characteristics and comparative analyses from the literature has shown that there is still room for improvement, particularly in ensuring efficiency in V2I interactions. This study aims to investigate the most viable network protocols for V2I communications, focusing on ensuring data quality (DQ) across the first three layers of the IoT protocol stack. This presents an improved understanding of the performance of network protocols in V2I communication. The findings of this paper showed that although each protocol offers unique strengths when evaluated against the identified dimensions of DQ, a cross-layer protocol fusion may be necessary to meet specific DQ dimensions. With the complexities and specific demands of V2I communications, it’s clear that no single protocol from our tri-layered perspective can solely fulfil all IP-based communication requirements given that the V2I communication landscape is teeming with heterogeneity, where a mixture of protocols is required to address unique communication demands.
