BBR Based Congestion Control with Hannes Sowa [PWL NYC]

Meetup: https://bit.ly/2upZow2 Paper: https://bit.ly/2E2pmFH Slides: https://bit.ly/2GSUY3v Audio: https://bit.ly/2Giocrb ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored and hosted by Two Sigma (@twosigma) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description ------------------ TCP congestion control has a large impact on perceived network performance (especially in terms of bandwidth and latency) and thus the Internet. Two major categories of congestion control algorithms had been explored, those using packet loss or packet delay feedback. Due to historic developments (and the development of packet switching hardware), packet-loss congestion control algorithms are commonly used today. We will discuss a congestion control scheme published by Google in 2017. Bio ----- Hannes Frederic Sowa recently joined [http://backtrace.io](http://backtrace.io) , and is onsite in New York for a month. Normally he resides in Zurich, Switzerland. Before switching jobs, he worked on the Linux Kernel networking stack focusing on IPv6. Hannes interest in higher level languages has recently been rebooted. During off-time and when not reading, he enjoys spontaneous trips with minimal luggage or crashing flight simulators.
