Overview

Control Congestion control is a set of techniques used to manage the flow of data in a system and to prevent overloading. It ensures that data is transmitted and received efficiently, without causing any disruption to the system. Congestion control is essential in networks like the internet, as it helps regulate the amount of data that can be sent and received, preventing too much data from being sent at once and causing network congestion. Congestion control is achieved through techniques such as flow control, windowing, and packet drops. Flow control limits the amount of data being sent, windowing allows for a finite amount of data to be sent, and packet drops serve to discard data when the network becomes overloaded. By implementing these techniques, congestion control helps maintain the stability of the network and allows data to be transferred more efficiently.
