Abstract
Techniques for managing a TCP congestion window. Such techniques include incrementing an acknowledgement (ACK) count for non-duplicate Transmission Control Protocol ACKs received, comparing the ACK count to a congestion window factor representing the ratio of a congestion window size associated with a connection to a maximum segment size associated with the connection, and, based on the comparing, incrementing the congestion window factor.
