TCP ex machina: computer-generated congestion control

Year: 2013

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This paper describes a new approach to end-to-end congestion control on a multi-user network. Rather than manually formulate each endpoint's reaction to congestion signals, as in traditional protocols, we developed a program called Remy that generates congestion-control algorithms to run at the endpoints.
