Abstract

A congestion management protocol that can be used for small messages in which the last-hop switch determines the congestion of the end point. The last-hop switch drops messages when the end point is congested and schedules a retransmission. A second congestion management protocol transmits small messages in a speculative mode to avoid the overhead caused by reservation handshakes.
