    - AIMD stands for Additive-Increase/Multiplicative-Decrease

    - AIMD algorithm is a feedback control algorithm best known for its use in TCP congestion avoidance.

    - AIMD congestion control will eventually converge to use equal amounts of a contended link.

    - AIMD combines linear growth of the congestion window with an exponential reduction when a congestion takes place.
