He wants the world to know that TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) congestion control is fundamentally broken and he has a proposal for the IETF to fix the root cause of the problem.

Computer-designed algorithms for controlling network congestion yield transmission rates two to three times as high as those designed by humans. TCP, the transmission control protocol, is one of ...

Indeed, where a typical TCP congestion-control algorithm might consist of a handful of rules — if the percentage of dropped packets crosses some threshold, cut the transmission rate in half ...

Teunis J. Ott, Jason Swanson, Asymptotic Behavior of a Generalized TCP Congestion Avoidance Algorithm, Journal of Applied Probability, Vol. 44, No. 3 (Sep., 2007), pp ...

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) now features a cutting-edge new congestion control algorithm, TCP BBR, which achieves higher bandwidths and lower latencies for internet traffic. This is the same BBR that ...

Google today announced that TCP BBR, a new congestion-control algorithm is now available to its Cloud Platform users. The general idea here is to improve on the existing congestion-control ...

Google's BBR algorithm for handling TCP traffic congestion has gained huge ground this week after Google announced integration with Google Cloud, a cloud hosting platform offered by Google to ...

Google unveils a new algorithm that's already making Google.com and YouTube faster — with the rest of the web to follow, hopefully.

This is a delay-based congestion control algorithm that seeks to utilize the available bandwidth on an end-to-end path while limiting the consequent increase in queuing delay on that path.

Google has started using a new congestion control algorithm for its Cloud Platform, following sucessful implementation on google.com and YouTube. TCP BBR achieves higher bandwidth and lower latencies ...
