TCP是为了在不可信的网络上提供可靠的端到端数据传输而开发的。通常，特定TCP变体的性能由拥塞控制技术定义。同时，一个典型的拥塞在一个网络中会导致长的排队延迟，高丢包率，高频率阻塞的新连接，等等。许多拥塞控制技术已经开发出来，但他们的分类，关联，强度和限制没有明确规定。因此，所开发的拥塞控制技术对于特定的网络环境可能是不可行的。在本文中，我们提出了一种新的分类法，分类30种不同的拥塞控制技术。该分类的三个主要标准是（1）负责确保拥塞控制技术的设备实体;（2）拥塞控制技术的目标域;以及（3）用于指示拥塞状态的拥塞度量。
TCP is developed to provide a reliable end-to-end data delivery over untrustworthy networks. In general, the performance of a specific TCP variant is defined by the congestion control technique. Meanwhile, a typical congestion in a network can cause long queuing delay, high packet loss, high frequent blocked of new connections, etc. Many congestion control techniques have been developed, but their categorization, association, strength, and limitation are not clearly specified. As a result, the developed congestion control technique may not be viable for a particular network environment. In this paper, we propose a novel taxonomy to classify 30 different congestion control techniques. Three main criteria of this taxonomy are (1) the device entity that is responsible for ensuring the congestion control technique; (2) the targeted domain of the congestion control technique; and (3) the congestion metric that is used to indicate the congestion status.
