  2  * Binary Increase Congestion control for TCP
  3  * Home page:
  4  *      http://netsrv.csc.ncsu.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/BIC
  5  * This is from the implementation of BICTCP in
  6  * Lison-Xu, Kahaled Harfoush, and Injong Rhee.
  7  *  "Binary Increase Congestion Control for Fast, Long Distance
  8  *  Networks" in InfoComm 2004
  9  * Available from:
 10  *  http://netsrv.csc.ncsu.edu/export/bitcp.pdf
 11  *
 12  * Unless BIC is enabled and congestion window is large
 13  * this behaves the same as the original Reno.
