What are the basic principles of congestion control?
The basic principles of congestion control include detecting and responding to congestion, avoiding overloading the network, utilizing available resources efficiently, and maintaining fairness among all applications on the network. Congestion control algorithms use various mechanisms such as packet dropping, congestion notification, flow control, and quality of service to prevent network congestion. These principles are implemented in various network technologies such as TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), which uses a congestion control algorithm to optimize network traffic and prevent it from overloading. Congestion control is essential for maintaining a stable and efficient network and to provide a reliable service to end-users.
