# 218152 01-Feb-2011 lstewart

Import a clean-room implementation of the VEGAS congestion control algorithm
based on the paper "TCP Vegas: end to end congestion avoidance on a global
internet" by Brakmo and Peterson. It is implemented as a kernel module
compatible with the recently committed modular congestion control framework.

VEGAS uses network delay as a congestion indicator and unlike regular loss-based
algorithms, attempts to keep the network operating with stable queuing delays
and no congestion losses. By keeping network buffers used along the path within
a set range, queuing delays are kept low while maintaining high throughput.
