SICC is a SDN-based Incast Congestion Control Framework for Data Centre Networks. Specifically, it aims at detecting incast in timely manner and achieving coperation between the network SDN controller and hypervisor to perform control rate of TCP during incast
It is implemented as a netwok application running on top of Ryu-Controller as well as a small Patch to OpenvSwitch datapath.
Please Refer to the [InstallME] file for more information about installation and possible usage scenarios.
