[NetDev-People] 0x13: Moonshot talk, Paced Chirping - Rethinking TCP start-up

TCP slow start faces a dilemma: Either you take too long to ramp up or you ramp up too fast and cause significant queuing delays. Joakim Misund et al defined Paced Chirping which gets a flow to achieve fast acceleration with virtually no queuing delay The implementation extends the kernel's pacing framework to allow a congestion control module to create "chirps" with desired characteristics. Joakim will describe the implementation and how one would use the extensions.
