TCP sliding window provides reliable data delivery, ordered data delivery, and flow control between sender and receiver. It works by having the sender track the highest byte sent and acknowledged, and the receiver track the highest byte received and read. This allows each side to know how much buffer space is available. The receiver advertises its available window size to limit how much unacknowledged data the sender can have outstanding.

Adaptive Flow Control
TCP Sliding Window TCP Sliding Window provides,  reliable delivery of data,  data is delivered in order, and  flow control between the sender and the receiver. Reliable delivery and Ordered Delivery:
TCP Sliding Window Sending Side  LastByteAcked ≤ LastByteSent - Receiver cannot acknowledge a byte that has not been sent.  LastByteSent ≤ LastByteWritten - TCP cannot send a byte that the application process has not yet written. Left side of the LastByteAcked need not to be saved in the buffer. Receiving Side  LastByteRead < NextByteExpected - All preceding bytes are already received. - Byte cannot be read by application until it is received.  NextByteExpected ≤ LastByteRcvd + 1 - If data has arrived in order, NextByteExpected points to the byte after LastByteRcvd - If data has arrives out of order, NextByteExpected points to the start of the first gap in the data. Bytes to the left of LastByteRead need not be buffered.
TCP Sliding Window Flow Control – Both sender and receiver buffer size is finite size, denoted by MaxSendBuffer, MaxRcvBuffer. – In sliding window, window size sets the amount of data that can be sent without waiting for acknowledgement. – Here receiver give the maximum window size for the sender by advertising a window that is no larger than the data that it can buffer. Receiver side must keep,  LastByteRcvd – LastByteRead ≤ MaxRcvBuffer - To avoid overflowing its buffer (Receive Buffer).  AdvertisedWindow = MaxRcvBuffer – ((NextByteExpected -1) – LastByteRead) - Represents the amount of free space remaining in the buffer Sender side must keep,  LastByteSent – LastByteAcked ≤ AdvertisedWindow  EffectiveWindow = AdvertisedWindow – (LastByteSent – LastByteAcked)
TCP Sliding Window To avoid the overflow of the send buffer by local application process, sender must make sure,  LastByteWritten – LastByteAcked ≤ MaxSendBuffer Protecting against Wraparound  SequenceNum – 32 bit long  AdvertisedWindow – 16 bit long  Sequence number space is twice as big as window size. Relevance of the 32-bit sequence number space • The sequence number used on a given connection might wraparound • A byte with sequence number x could be sent at one time, and then at a later time a second byte with the same sequence number x could be sent • Packets cannot survive in the Internet for longer than the MSL • MSL is set to 120 sec • We need to make sure that the sequence number does not wrap around within a 120- second period of time.
TCP Sliding Window Keeping the Pipe Full • 16-bit AdvertisedWindow field must be big enough to allow the sender to keep the pipe full.
TCP Sliding Window • Clearly the receiver is free not to open the window as large as the AdvertisedWindow field allows • If the receiver has enough buffer space – The window needs to be opened far enough to allow a full – delay × bandwidth product’s worth of data – Assuming an RTT of 100 ms Required Window Size for 100ms RTT
