Spring et al (2000) Receiver Based Management of Low Bandwidth Access Links (INFOCOM)
This paper proposed to use rwnd at TCP receiver to do congestion control in case of interactive flows contending with bulk transfer flows. The paper argues that, it is a cooperative control for the receiver to limit congestion at access link and the sender limits congestion in the rest of...

Vasudevan et al (2009) A (In)Cast of Thousands: Scaling Datacenter TCP to Kiloservers and Gigabits (CMU TR)
A tech report to study the incast behaviour in data center. Incast is due to
RTO in synchronized read. To solve the problem, set the RTOmin to 200us can
help. The default value of 200ms gives a poor goodput.
