/*
 * tcp-asym includes modifications to several flavors of TCP to enhance
 * performance over asymmetric networks, where the ack channel is
 * constrained.  Types of asymmetry we have studied and used these mods
 * include bandwidth asymmetry and latency asymmetry (where  variable 
 * latencies cause problems to TCP, e.g., in packet radio networks.
 * The receiver-side code in this file is derived from the regular
 * TCP sink code. The main additional functionality is that the sink responds
 * to ECN by performing ack congestion control, i.e. it multiplicatively backs
 * off the frequency with which it sends acks (up to a limit). For each 
 * subsequent round-trip period during which it does not receive an ECN, 
 * it gradually increases the frequency of acks (up to a maximum of 1 
 * per data packet).
