Consistent high performance and flexible congestion control architecture
The part of TCP software stack that controls how fast a data sender transfers packets is usually referred as congestion control, because it was originally introduced to avoid network congestion of multiple competing flows. During the recent 30 years of Internet evolution, traditional TCP congestion …
