Abstract
The techniques described herein relate to methods, apparatus, and computer readable media configured to determine a current data transmission sequence number for a next packet in a communication session with a remote computing device. An interruption in the communication session is detected. Checkpointed data for the communication session is determined that is indicative of a previous sequence number used for a previous packet sent to the remote computing device. A resolution procedure is performed to determine the current data transmission sequence number for the next packet in the communication session, including determining an estimated next sequence number for transmitting data in the communication session based on the checkpointed data, transmitting a first packet to the remote computing device, receiving a second packet from the remote computing device that has an associated sequence number, and determining the current sequence number for the next packet in the communication session.
