Network congestion

Network congestion in computer networking and queueing theory is the reduced quality of service that occurs when a network node or link is carrying or processing more load than its capacity. Typical effects include queueing delay, packet loss or the blocking of new connections. A consequence of congestion is that an incremental increase in offered load…
