Question 10

Consider an instance of TCP’s Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) algorithm where the window size at the start of the slow start phase is 2 MSS and the threshold at the start of the first transmission is 8 MSS. Assume that a timeout occurs during the fifth transmission. Find the congestion window size at the end of the tenth transmission.

A
8 MSS
B
14 MSS
C
7 MSS
D
12 MSS
Question 10 Explanation: 
Given initial threshold = 8
Time = 1 during 1st trans. , window size = 2 (Slow start),
Time = 2 congestion window size = 4 (double the no. of ack.)
Time = 3 congestion window = 8
Time = 4 congestion window size = 9, after threshold, increase by one additive increase.
Time = 5 transmit 10 MSS, but time out occur congestion window size = 10
Hence threshold = (congestion window size)/2 = 10/2 = 5
Time = 6 transmit 2(since in the question, they are saying ss is starting from 2)
Time = 7 transmit 4
Time = 8 transmit 5
Time = 9 transmit 6
Time = 10 transmit 7
Correct Answer: C
