DESCRIPTION:Dr. Naeem Khademi\, PhD.\, University of Oslo\nExcessive and u
 npredictable end-to-end latency is a major problem for today’s Internet 
 performance\, affecting a range of applications from real-time multimedia 
 to web traffic. This is mainly attributed to the interaction between the T
 CP congestion control and the unmanaged large buffers deployed across the 
 Internet. In this talk I will discuss transport and link layer solutions t
 o solve the Internet’s latency problem on the access links. These soluti
 ons operate on the sender side\, within the network or use signaling betwe
 en the sender and the network based on Explicit Congestion Notification (E
 CN). In addition\, I will present Alternative Backoff with ECN (ABE)\, a c
 hange in sender’s reaction to ECN signal that reduces latency without ha
 rming link utilization. Real-life experiments and simulations show that th
 is goal is achieved while maintaining backward compatibility and being gra
 dually deployable on the Internet. ABE has been standardized by the IETF a
 s an “experimental” RFC (RFC 8511) and been incorporated into mainline
  FreeBSD kernel.\n
