Dear ICCRGers, We just got a paper accepted that I wanted to share: Michael Welzl, Peyman Teymoori, Safiqul Islam, David Hutchison, Stein Gjessing: "Future Internet Congestion Control: The Diminishing Feedback Problem", accepted for publication in IEEE Communications Magazine, 2022. The preprint is available at: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.06642 I thought that it could provoke an interesting discussion in this group. Figures 4 and 5 in this paper show that, across the world, network links do not just become "faster”: the range between the low end and the high end grows too. This, I think, is problematic for a global end-to-end standard - e.g., it means that we cannot simply keep scaling IW along forever (or, if we do, utilization will decline more and more). So, we ask: what is the way ahead? Should congestion control really stay end-to-end? Cheers, Michael _______________________________________________ iccrg mailing list [email protected] https://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/iccrg -- FQ World Domination pending: https://blog.cerowrt.org/post/state_of_fq_codel/ Dave Täht CEO, TekLibre, LLC _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
