1. A system for improving the performance of a transmission control protocol (“

  • TCP”

    ) communication in a network, said system comprising;

    a TCP server in communication with a TCP client, anda process located between the TCP server and the TCP client and adapted to create at least one second client acknowledgement from two or more first client acknowledgements flowing between the TCP server and the TCP client, and to transmit at least one second client acknowledgement into the network, and wherein said process is capable of enabling and disabling the creation of said second client acknowledgements,and wherein said process ensures a maximum delay between each of said first client acknowledgements and the transmission of said second client acknowledgements,and wherein said process is capable of dynamically modulating the number of first client acknowledgements used to create each second client acknowledgment based on one or more of the following;

    (a) network type,(b) signalling,(c) network performance,(d) transmission rate, and(e) packet per second rate.
