A spurious timeout in TCP forces the sender to unnecessarily retransmit one
complete congestion window of data into the network. In addition, the
congestion state of the network could change substantially after a spurious
timeout. In this draft we propose a conservative congestion response
algorithm afert spurious timeout that takes network state into account.
