Abstract:
Systems, methods, and servers for controlling data flow across a computer network having a first performance enhancing proxy device (PEP1) between a client-facing segment of the network and a second PEP device (PEP2) on a server-facing segment of the network. PEP2 has a receiver for receiving flow control information from across a control channel between PEP1 and PEP2, for each TCP connection on the client-facing segment. The information includes round-trip packet latency (Li) on the client-facing segment and transmit buffer congestion information of PEP1. PEP2 has a determiner for determining if a TCP connection has a congested packet flow; and a congestion reliever for relieving such congestion by synchronizing a receive buffer of the PEP2 to be the same size as a transmit buffer congestion window of the PEP1; and delaying acknowledgments (ACKs) at PEP2 by a time Tack based on a preset threshold level Tlim or Li.

Claim (Index 18):
The flow control process of  claim 15 , wherein synchronizing comprises:\n setting the receive buffer receive window size of the PEP2 to be whichever is smaller of the transmit buffer congestion window size of the PEP1 and the receive buffer receive window size of the PEP2.
