Podlesny & Williamson (2011) An Application-Level Solution for the TCP-incast Problem in Data Center Networks (IWQoS)
A short paper on limiting the number of concurrent senders as a solution to TCP incast. The paper gives the optimal performance as a closed form solution, which the transfer time is in terms of just-fit, no-loss use of buffer at the bottleneck. To achieve this, we can send no...
