Join the Research: Can NDM-TCP Handle the "Wild" Cases?
The NDM-TCP project has reached a critical milestone. Through extensive loopback testing with Linux Traffic Control (tc), we have proven that our Neural Differential Manifolds approach out-performs traditional algorithms like Reno and Cubic in controlled environments. However, lab results are only half the story. The ultimate test for any congestion control algorithm is the "Wild Case"—the unpredictable, non-linear chaos of the actual internet. 🧪 Beyond Emulation: The Need for Real-World Stress While emulators can simulate 5% packet loss or 200ms jitter, they struggle to replicate: Hardware Quirkiness: How physical NIC buffers and router queues interact with ML-driven bursts. Competing Flows: How NDM-TCP behaves when fighting for bandwidth against millions of other standard TCP flows. Multi-hop Variance: The "noise" generated by crossing a dozen different ISP backbones. We need to know: Does NDM-TCP's intelligence hold up when the math gets messy? 🔍 Test the User-Space Predictor (No Ri
