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 8):
A non-volatile machine-readable storage medium storing a program having instructions which when executed by a processor will cause the processor to:\n receive flow control information from across a control channel between the PEP1 and the PEP2, the flow control information including round-trip packet latency measurement (Li) on the client-facing segment and transmit buffer congestion window information of the PEP1, wherein the flow control information is for each TCP connection on the client-facing segment; determine whether each TCP connection of the client-facing segment has a congested TCP packet flow; and for each TCP connection of the client-facing segment having a congested TCP packet flow:\n synchronize a receive buffer receive window size of the PEP2 to be the same as a transmit buffer congestion window size of the PEP1.
