Question: Although slow start with congestion avoidance is an effective technique for coping with congestion, it can result in long recovery times in high- speed networks

Although slow start with congestion avoidance is an effective technique for coping with congestion, it can result in long recovery times in high- speed networks as this problem demonstrates.

a.Perform you own research to document the Jacobson's algorithm for RTT variance estimation.

 

b.Assume a round-trip time of 80 ms (about what might occur across a continent) and a link with an available bandwidth of 1 Gbps and a segment size of 776 octets. Determine the window size needed to keep the pipe full and the time it will take to reach that window size after a timeout using Jacobson's approach.

c.Repeat (a) for a segment size of 20 Kbytes.
