    Abstract

    The congestion control method Sierra was developed and explicated elsewhere in several papers, and has been shown to have close implication for the statistical modelling, suggesting and using Brownian motion formulation. The latter topic was reported first by Robert Brown, in 1828. The problem was debated extensively by mathematical physicists for several decades after Brown; over the years a definitive treatment of the subject was given by Wiener (1976) formalised in the terms of contemporary mathematics. Again, this work is recapitulated here from our perspective of modelling Black Box congestion control procedures.
