    For example, if a smartphone app fails to connect to its server, it might try again 1 second later, then if it fails again, 2 seconds later, then 4, etc. Each time the pause is multiplied by a fixed amount (in this case 2). In this case, the adverse event is failing to connect to the server.

The Message Type ID byte defines whether the packet contains audio/video data, a remote object or a command. Some possible values for are: 0x01 = Set Packet Size Message. 0x02 = Abort.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_congestion_control

    In TCP, the congestion window (CWND) is one of the factors that determines the number of bytes that can be sent out at any time. The congestion window is maintained by the sender and is a means of preventing a link between the sender and the receiver from becoming overloaded with too much traffic.
