How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T14442684 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Entity disambiguation (via context triple)

Target entity: Internet congestion control Context triple: [Van Jacobson, knownFor, Internet congestion control]
-
A.
Explicit Congestion Experienced
Explicit Congestion Experienced (ECE) is a TCP/IP header flag used in Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to indicate that network congestion has been detected without dropping packets.
-
B.
Active Queue Management
Active Queue Management is a set of techniques used in network routers and switches to proactively manage packet queues and reduce congestion by intelligently dropping or marking packets before buffers overflow.
-
C.
The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to IP
The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to IP is an IETF standard (RFC 3168) that specifies how IP and TCP can signal and respond to network congestion without relying solely on packet loss.
-
D.
Random Early Detection
Random Early Detection is a congestion avoidance mechanism for packet-switched networks that probabilistically drops packets before a queue becomes full to signal and control incipient congestion.
-
E.
Priority-based Flow Control
Priority-based Flow Control is an Ethernet link-layer mechanism that enables lossless data transmission for selected traffic classes by pausing specific priorities instead of the entire link.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
