by the method and is used to compute the phase that the sender currently =
lies in. In order to compute pipeACK the approach suggested by the =
Internet Draft (ID) is followed [ncwv]. During initialization, pipeACK =
is set to the maximum possible value. A helper variable prevHighACK is =
introduced that is initialized to the initial sequence number (iss). =
prevHighACK holds the value of the highest acknowledged byte so far. =
pipeACK is measured once per RTT meaning that when an ACK covering =
prevHighACK is received, pipeACK becomes the difference between the =
current ACK and prevHighACK. This is called a pipeACK sample.  A newer =
version of the draft suggests that multiple pipeACK samples can be used =
during the pipeACK sampling period."
