   3 * Binary Increase Congestion control for TCP

   6 * This is from the implementation of BICTCP in

   8 *  "Binary Increase Congestion Control for Fast, Long Distance
   9 *  Networks" in InfoComm 2004
  10 * Available from:
  11 *  http://netsrv.csc.ncsu.edu/export/bitcp.pdf
  12 *
  13 * Unless BIC is enabled and congestion window is large
  14 * this behaves the same as the original Reno.
