微软研究院与Standford U合作开发,发表在2010年 ACM SIGCOMM
Motivation: satisfying data center traffic
Principle: Extends TCP's congestion control algorithm. Using Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) in switches to detect and response to network congestion, signaled by the sequence of ECN marks by the switch.
Results:
1. Delivers the same or better throughput than TCP, while using 90% less router buffer space.
2. Provides high burst tolerance and low latency for short flows
