Equation-Based Congestion Control for Unicast Applications

Research papers describing experience getting TCP-compatible throughput from rate-based (rather than window-based) approaches. Since resulting traffic stream is less bursty, this approach is suitable for streaming multimedia applications that need congestion-avoidance properties.

An OpenBSD-specific way to relieve TCP performance degradation due to congestion in the opposite direction across a bottleneck.
