Abstract

Congestion management techniques for communication networks are described. In an example embodiment, an apparatus may comprise circuitry, a communication component for execution by the circuitry to receive a send request identifying a message to be received from an initiator device via a packet transfer process and transmit an acceptance to grant the send request, and a scheduling component for execution by the circuitry to determine whether to defer the packet transfer process and in response to a determination to defer the packet transfer process, select a value of a delay parameter to be included in the acceptance. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
