Congestion Avoidance and Control (SIGCOMM 1988)

Target entity: Congestion Avoidance and Control (SIGCOMM 1988)
Context triple: [Van Jacobson, notableWork, Congestion Avoidance and Control (SIGCOMM 1988)]

• A. 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.
• B. 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.
• C. Simulation-based comparisons of Tahoe, Reno, and SACK TCP
  "Simulation-based Comparisons of Tahoe, Reno, and SACK TCP" is a widely cited research paper in computer networking that evaluates and contrasts the performance of different TCP variants using simulation.
• 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. CoDel
  CoDel (Controlled Delay) is an active queue management algorithm designed to control network bufferbloat by keeping packet queuing delays low without requiring manual tuning.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Target entity: Congestion Avoidance and Control (SIGCOMM 1988)
Target entity description: Congestion Avoidance and Control (SIGCOMM 1988) is Van Jacobson’s seminal paper that introduced key TCP congestion control algorithms, fundamentally improving Internet stability and performance.
