  1. Read 7.E & 7.F Flow & Congestion Control Prof. Dina Katabi Some slides are from lectures by Nick Mckeown, Ion Stoica, Frans Kaashoek, Hari Balakrishnan, and Sam Madden

  2. This Lecture • More about Sliding Window • Flow Control • Congestion Control

  8. This Lecture • More about Sliding Window • Flow Control • Congestion Control

  9. What is the right window size? • The window limits how fast the sender sends • Two mechanisms control the window: • Flow control • Congestion control

  11. Timeout because of a packet loss Grab capacity again Halve Cwnd TCP AIMD Cwnd desired cwnd Time Need the queue to absorb these saw-tooth oscillations

  12. TCP “Slow Start” • How to set the initial cwnd? • At the beginning of a connection, increase exponentially • Every RTT, double cwnd 1 2 4 8 Src D D D A A D D D D A A A A A A A A A Rcvr
