This is a minor update incorporating some changes based on comments from 
Naveen Nathan and Klaus Schneider. Thanks to both!

If you have the prior version in your queue to read, replace it with 
this one.
I really could use more comments on the utility of this and other issues 
you find.

Thanks, DaveO

> Abstract:
>    Deeply embedded in some ICN architectures, especially Named Data
>    Networking (NDN) and Content-Centric Networking (CCNx) is the 
> notion
>    of flow balance.  This captures the idea that there is a one-to-one
>    correspondence between requests for data, carried in Interest
>    messages, and the responses with the requested data object, carried
>    in Data messages.  This has a number of highly beneficial 
> properties
>    for flow and congestion control in networks, as well as some
>    desirable security properties.  For example, neither legitimate 
> users
>    nor attackers are able to inject large amounts of un-requested data
>    into the network.
>
>    Existing congestion control approaches however cannot deal
>    effectively with a widely varying MTU of ICN data messages, since 
> the
>    protocols allow a dynamic range of 1-64K bytes.  Since Interest
>    messages are used to allocate the reverse link bandwidth for
>    returning Data, there is large uncertainty in how to allocate that
>    bandwidth.  Unfortunately, current congestion control schemes in 
> CCNx
>    and NDN only count Interest messages and have no idea how much data
>    is involved that could congest the inverse link.  This document
>    proposes a method to maintain flow balance by accommodating the 
> wide
>    dynamic range in Data message MTU.
