Utility Function is All You Need: LLM-based Congestion Control
Congestion is a critical and challenging problem in communication networks. Congestion control protocols allow network applications to tune their sending rate in a way that optimizes their performance and the network utilization. In the common distributed setting, the applications cannot collaborate with each other directly but instead obtain similar estimations about the state of the network using latency and loss measurements. These measurements can be fed into analytical functions, referred to by utility functions, whose gradients help each and all distributed senders to converge to a desired state. The above process becomes extremely complicated when each application has different opt...
