Pantheon Congestion Control Analysis

A comprehensive framework for evaluating and comparing congestion control algorithms using the Pantheon platform with MahiMahi network emulation.

Overview:

This repository provides tools and scripts for analyzing the performance of various congestion control algorithms BBR, Cubic, Vegas across different network conditions. By leveraging Pantheon's standardized test harness, the project enables consistent and fair comparison of algorithm behaviors.

Features:

1. Automated testing of multiple congestion control algorithms
2. Performance analysis across diverse network scenarios
3. Comprehensive visualization of results including throughput, loss rate, and RTT metrics
4. Comparative analysis between different network profiles

Prerequisites
